Given Fraction:
Determine the Greatest Common Factor of the numerator and denominator:
Greatest Common Factor of 30 and 48 equals 6, GCF(30, 48) = 6
Divide the numerator and denominator by the GCF:
30/48
Determine the Greatest Common Factor of the numerator and denominator:
Greatest Common Factor of 30 and 48 equals 6, GCF(30, 48) = 6
