Hello!

The answer is 20/60 simplest form is 1/3

To get 20/60 you must multiply the Numerator by Numerator (4*5) and Denominator by Denominator (5*12). Your answer will be 20/60.

To get 1/3 you must simplify a number that can go into 20 and 60 (which is 10). Divide 20/10 and 60/10 and get 2/6. Simplify 2/6 by 2 and get 1/3.
