Reduction fraction

Introduction for fractions:

A fraction is a number that can represent part of a whole. The earliest fractions were reciprocals of integers: ancient symbols representing one part of two, one part of three, one part of four, and so on. A much later development were the common or "vulgar" fractions which are still used today (?, ?, ?, etc.) and which consist of a numerator and a denominator. [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] Reduction of fraction is defined as writing the given fraction in simplest form.

Fraction reduction Problem:

1. Reduce the fraction `8/14`

Solution:

The given fraction is

=` 8/14`

[link widoczny dla zalogowanych] It can be reduced further as

14 can be written as 2 * 7 and 8 can be written as 2 *4

= `(2*4)/(2*7)`

By crossing out 2 and 2 we get

= `4/7`

2. Reduce the fraction `5/25`

Solution:

The given fraction

= `5/25`

25 can be written as 5 * 5 and 5 can be written as 5 *1

[link widoczny dla zalogowanych] = `(5*1)/(5*5)`

By crossing out 5 and 5 we get

= `1/5`

3. Reduce the fraction` 20/ 22`

Solution:

The given fraction is

= `20/22`

It can be reduced further has

22 can be written as 2 *11 [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] and 20 can be written as 2 *10

= `(2*10)/(2*11)`

Crossing out 2 and 2 we get

= `10/11`

Fraction reduction Problem:

4. Reduction the fraction `15/ 18`

Solution:

The given fraction is

= `15/18`

It can be reduced further has

18 can be written [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] as 3 *6 and 15 can be written as 3 *5

= `(3*5)/(3*6)`

Cross out 3 [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] and 3 we get reduce fraction as

= `5/6`

5. Reduction the fraction is `20/25`

Solution:

[link widoczny dla zalogowanych] The given fraction is

=`20/25`

It can be reduced further has

25 can be written as 5 *5 and 20 can be written as 5*4

=` (5*4)/(5*5)`

Cross out 5 and 5 we get reduce fraction as

=`4/5`

6.Reduction fraction is `50/100`

Solution:

The given fraction is

= `50/100`

It can be reduced further has

50 can written as 50 *1 and 100 can be written as 50*2

= `(50 *1)/(50*2)`

Crossing out 50 and 50 we can write fraction is

=` 1/2`

7.Reduction fraction is `60/120`

Solution:

The given fraction is

= `60/120`

It can be reduced further has

60 can written as 10 *6 and 120 can written as 10*12

=` (10*6)/(10*12)`

Crossing out 10 and 10, we can reduce the fractions as

= `6/12`

= 1/2

8.Reduction the fraction `25/30`

30 can be written [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] as 5 * 6 and 25 can be written as 5 *5 [link widoczny dla zalogowanych]

= `(5*5)/(5*6)`

By crossing out 5 and 5 we get

=` 5/6`

9. Reduction the fraction ` 14/21`

Solution:

The given fraction

= `14/21`

21 can be written as 7 * 3 and 14 can be written as 7 *2

= `(7*2)/(7*3)`

By crossing out 7 and 7 we get

= `2/3`

10. Reduction the fraction `32/ 40`

Solution:

The given fraction is

= `32/40`

It can be reduced further has

40 can be written as 8 *5 and 32 can be written had 8 *4

= `(8*4)/(8*5)`

Crossing out 8 and 8 we get

= `4/5`

11. Reduction the fraction `18/27`

Solution:

The given fraction is

= `18/27`

It can be reduced further has

27 can be written as 9 *3 and 18 can be written as 9 *2

= `(9*2)/(9*3)`

Cross out 9 and 9 we get reduce fraction as

= `2/3`
