Answer:

3/4

Explanation:

Factor 12 out of 36

Factor 12 out of 48

Which gives you 3/4

[3 for the 36 b/c
12*3 = 12] [4 for the 48 b/c
12*4 = 48]

Making it
(3)/(4)

Or in decimal form: 0.75

Solution


(36)/(48) \\ \\ = \cancel (36)/(48) \\ \\ \fbox {cancelling \: by \: 6} \\ \\ = (6)/(8) \\ \\ = \cancel (6)/(8) \\ \\ \fbox{now \: cancelling \: by2} \\ \\ = (3)/(4)

So
(3)/(4) is the most simplified form of
(36)/(48)

Hope This Helps You
