Given Fraction:
Determine the Greatest Common Factor of the numerator and denominator:
Greatest Common Factor of 15 and 20 equals 5, GCF(15, 20) = 5
Divide the numerator and denominator by the GCF:
15/20
Determine the Greatest Common Factor of the numerator and denominator:
Greatest Common Factor of 15 and 20 equals 5, GCF(15, 20) = 5
Divide the numerator and denominator by the GCF:
15/20
= 15 ÷ 5/20 ÷ 5
= 3/4
(1 is the only factor common to 3 and 4)Therefore, 15/20
is equal to 3/4
in Simplest Form: 15/20
= 3/4
