How do you simplify fractions?
To simplify fractions, you need to find the greatest common factor (GCF) between the numerator and the denominator. The GCF is the largest number that divides evenly into both numbers. Once you have found the GCF, divide both the numerator and the denominator by it. This will give you an equivalent fraction that is simplified. Simplifying fractions is important because it makes them easier to work with and understand. It also helps in comparing and ordering fractions.
