Answer:

3/20

Explanation:

To do this multiply the numerators (the top numbers) together first.

3 * 1 = 3

This is the numerator (the top number) of the answer fraction.

Next we take the bottom numbers:

5 * 4 = 20

We have 3/20 as our fraction. We know 3 is a prime number and can only be divided by 1 or 3. 20 cannot be divided by 1 or 3 so this fraction cannot be simplified any more.
