Question

Write the fraction in simplest form. PLEASE HELP

5s²t²/40st

49t²/7t³

Answer 1

`(st)/(8)` is the answer to
`(5s^2t^2)/(40st )`

`(7)/(t)` is the answer to
`(49t^2)/(7t^3)`

Explanation:

`(5s^2t^2)/(40st )`

5 can go into 40 eight times.

`(s^2t^2)/(8st)`

Since s and t are squared in the numerator and st isnt in the denominator, s and t can go into s squared and t squared.

`(st)/(8)`

`(49t^2)/(7t^3)`

7 can go into 49 seven times.

`(7t^2)/(t^3)`

Since t is squared in the numerator and t is cubed in the denominator, t sqaured can go into t cubed.

`(7)/(t)`
