You can
put this solution on YOUR website!fractions are simplified by dividing the top and bottom by the same number
this never changes the value of the fraction
given this fraction
suppose a is any number
but you want to pick "a" so the fraction is simplified
If a = 2, then
that gives us
and the fraction hasn't changed value
try a harder one
pick 13 for a. Always pick the largest number that will divide top and
bottom evenly
hope this helps
