Answer:

3/7

Explanation:

  • 15/35 in its simplest form

15 and 35 are multiples of 5, so we divide the numerator and denumerator by 5

15 : 5 = 3

35 : 5 = 7

so, your answer is 3/7

check

15:35=0.42

3:7=0.42

Hi there!


\small\textbf{ANSWER:}

3/7


\small\textbf{EXPLANATION:}

We are asked to simplify the fraction:


\longmapsto\quad\bf{\cfrac{15}{35}}

In order to simplify the fraction, we need to divide the top and the bottom by 5, the greatest common factor:


\longmapsto\quad\bf{\cfrac{15/5}{35/5}}


\longmapsto\quad\bf{\cfrac{3}{7}}

Therefore, our answer is 3/7.

-Best wishes!
