Given Fraction:
Determine the Greatest Common Factor of the numerator and denominator:
Greatest Common Factor of 30 and 40 equals 10, GCF(30, 40) = 10
Divide the numerator and denominator by the GCF:
30/40
Determine the Greatest Common Factor of the numerator and denominator:
Greatest Common Factor of 30 and 40 equals 10, GCF(30, 40) = 10
Divide the numerator and denominator by the GCF:
30/40
= 30 ÷ 10/40 ÷ 10
= 3/4
(1 is the only factor common to 3 and 4)Therefore, 30/40
is equal to 3/4
in Simplest Form: 30/40
= 3/4
