Question

What is 6/10 simplified

Answer 1

3/5

Explanation:

• 
  `(6)/(10)`

1. To simplify this fraction, let's find the largest common factor.

• Factors of 6: 1, 2, 3, 6
• Factors of 10: 1, 2, 5, 10

2. Okay, now that we know the largest common factor is 2, we have to divide the numerator and denominator by it.

• 
  `(6/2)/(10/2)`
• 
  `(3)/(5)`

Therefore, 6/10 simplified is 3/5.

Answer 2

3/5

Explanation:

Find the GCD (or HCF) of numerator and denominator

GCD of 6 and 10 is 2

Divide both the numerator and denominator by the GCD

6 ÷ 2/10 ÷ 2

Reduced fraction: 3/5

Therefore, 6/10 simplified to lowest terms is 3/5.
