1 Answer

Answer:

23/6 (It's already in its lowest form)

Explanation:

One way you can simplify fractions is GCF

What is GCF?

GCF means Greatest Common Factor

The GCF, or Greatest Common Factor, of two or more numbers, is the most significant number that evenly divides into all considered numbers. So, the GCF of 23 and 6 would be the most significant number that can divide both 23 and 6 exactly, without any remainder left afterward.

The GCF of 23 and 6 is one because

23: 1,23

6: 1, 6,12,18,24

The only common factor is 1,

If you do (6 ÷ 1) / (23 ÷ 1) = 23/6

(Anything divided by 1 equals that same number)

In conclusion, 23/6 simplified is 23/6
