Given Fraction:
Determine the Greatest Common Factor of the numerator and denominator:
Greatest Common Factor of 3 and 6 equals 3, GCF(3, 6) = 3
Divide the numerator and denominator by the GCF:
3/6
Determine the Greatest Common Factor of the numerator and denominator:
Greatest Common Factor of 3 and 6 equals 3, GCF(3, 6) = 3
Divide the numerator and denominator by the GCF:
3/6
= 3 ÷ 3/6 ÷ 3
= 1/2
(1 is the only factor common to 1 and 2)Therefore, 3/6
is equal to 1/2
in Simplest Form: 3/6
