Look at \"highlight_red%28+%28highlight_red%28+8%2F15+%29%29%2A%2825%2F32%29+%29\".
Remove unneeded parentheses around factor \"highlight_red%28+8+%29\",\"highlight_red%28+1%2F15+%29\"
It becomes \"highlight_green%28+8+%29%2Fhighlight_green%28+15+%29%2A%2825%2F32%29\".

Look at \"highlight_red%28+8+%29%2F15%2A25%2Fhighlight_red%28+32+%29\".
Factors 8 and 32 have greatest common factor (GCF) of 8. Reducing fraction.
It becomes \"highlight_green%28+1+%29%2F15%2A25%2Fhighlight_green%28+4+%29\".
\n" ); document.write( "
Look at \"1%2Fhighlight_red%28+15+%29%2Ahighlight_red%28+25+%29%2F4\".
Factors 25 and 15 have greatest common factor (GCF) of 5. Reducing fraction.
It becomes \"1%2Fhighlight_green%28+3+%29%2Ahighlight_green%28+5+%29%2F4\".
\n" ); document.write( "
Look at \"highlight_red%28+1+%29%2F3%2Ahighlight_red%28+5+%29%2F4\".
Multiplied numerator integers
It becomes \"highlight_green%28+5+%29%2F3%2F4\".
\n" ); document.write( "
Look at \"5%2Fhighlight_red%28+3+%29%2Fhighlight_red%28+4+%29\".
