Question

Simplify 38-87. I dont know

Answer 1

To check if we can simplify the fraction 38/87, we need to decompose the numerator and the denominator in their prime factors:

`\begin{gathered} 38=2\cdot19 \\ 87=3\cdot29 \end{gathered}`

If the two numbers have any prime factor in common, we can divide both numbers by this prime factor. But in this case, the two numbers don't have prime factors in common, so we can't simplify the fraction further.

So the fraction 38/87 is already in the simplest fraction form.
