multiply the numerators (top numbers) together to get the new numerator, and multiply the denominators (bottom numbers) together to get the new denominator. like this: (a/b) times (c/d) = (a times c)/(b times d)

Find the GCF of the numerator and the denominator and divide them both by it. If the GCF is 1, the fraction is in its simplest form.

How do you explain simplest form in fractions?

Simplest form in fractions is where the numerator and the denominator do not share any factors other than 1, i.e. they are relatively prime. For instance, 9/12 is not in simplest form, but 3/4 is.


How can knowing the GCF and LCM help you when you add subtract and multiply fractions?

Knowing the LCM will help when adding or subtracting unlike fractions. By finding the LCM of the denominators, (called the lowest common denominator) you can convert unlike to like fractions and proceed with the adding or subtracting. Knowing the GCF helps reduce a fraction. By finding the GCF of the numerator and the denominator and dividing both of them by it, you can reduce a fraction to its lowest terms (simplest form). If the GCF is 1, the fraction is in its simplest form. You can successfully multiply fractions without knowing the GCF or LCM.


What are the two equivalent fractions of 86 90?

To find the equivalent fractions, you first need to put the fraction in its simplest form. In this case, 86 and 90 can both divide by 2, so do this and you get 43/45. To find equivalent fractions, you multiply this simplest form fraction by any integer (1, 2, 3, 4...). This gives the equivalent fractions of 86/90 as: 43/45, 129/135, 172/180...
