Question

TA Write in simplest form (improper not accepted): 7
`7 (7)/(14)`

Answer 1

We are given the following fraction

`(7)/(14)`

We are asked to write it in the simplest form.

Notice that the number 14 is a multiple of number 7.

That is 7 times 2 is equal to 14.

Which means that 7 divided by 14 must be equal to 2

So the fraction becomes

`(7)/(14)=(1)/(2)`

Therefore, the simplest form of the given fraction is 1/2

Please note that the simplest form means that it cannot be further simplified.
