Given Fraction:
Determine the Greatest Common Factor of the numerator and denominator:
Greatest Common Factor of 10 and 1,000 equals 10, GCF(10, 1,000) = 10
Divide the numerator and denominator by the GCF:
10/1,000
Determine the Greatest Common Factor of the numerator and denominator:
Greatest Common Factor of 10 and 1,000 equals 10, GCF(10, 1,000) = 10
Divide the numerator and denominator by the GCF:
10/1,000
= 10 ÷ 10/1,000 ÷ 10
= 1/100
(1 is the only factor common to 1 and 100)Therefore, 10/1,000
is equal to 1/100
in Simplest Form: 10/1,000
= 1/100
