Lesson 5-3 Simplifying Fractions
Example 1 Write Fractions in Simplest Form
Example 2 Write Fractions in Simplest Form
Example 3 Use Fractions to Solve a Problem
Write
in simplest form.
First, find the GCF of the numerator and denominator.
factors of 12: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12
factors of 45: 1, 3, 5, 9, 15, 45
The GCF of 12
and 45 is 3.
Then, divide the numerator and the denominator
by the GCF.
Check Multiply the numerator and denominator of the
answer by the GCF. The result should be the
original fraction.
