To simplify a fraction, we need to divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor (GCF). The prime factorization of 24 is 2 × 2 × 2 × 3, and the prime factorization of 36 is 2 × 2 × 3 × 3. The common factors are 2, 2, and 3. The greatest common factor is 2 × 2 × 3 = 12. DiRead more
To simplify a fraction, we need to divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor (GCF).
The prime factorization of 24 is 2 × 2 × 2 × 3, and the prime factorization of 36 is 2 × 2 × 3 × 3.
The common factors are 2, 2, and 3. The greatest common factor is 2 × 2 × 3 = 12.
Dividing both the numerator and denominator by 12, we get:
24/36 = (24 ÷ 12) / (36 ÷ 12) = 2/3
Therefore, 24/36 simplified to the lowest terms is equal to 2/3.
