What is 4/62 in lowest terms? - Mathsoft Solving and Optimization Extension Pack III (46513) for PC

To convert a fraction to lowest terms, we must divide the numerator (the top number) and the denominator (the bottom number) by a common number until we can't reduce it any more. A method for doing this is to factor the numerator and denominator by their common factors.

So let's factor 711 and 22.

1 x 711
9 x 79
3 x 3 x 79

I don't think I can factor 79. We should check the numbers from 2 up to the square root of 79, or approximately 9.

Factoring 22,

1 x 22
2 x 11

Unfortunately, none of the factors of 711 are common with the factors of 22, so it is already in its lowest terms, and cannot be reduced.

Good luck,

180/900 is 1/5 in the lowest terms.

Divide both 180 and 900 by 180. 180 divided by 180 is 1, 900 divided by 180 is 5. This gives 1/5.

1/7 is 2/14. 2/14+5/14 is 7/14, which is 1/2 in lowest terms.

6/15 + 2/15 = 8/15 which is already in lowest terms.

4 1/10

In words, four and one-tenth.

2x - 7
3 9
3.2x - 7
9
6x - 7

The lowest setting that you can achieve in reality is about 62 or 63 in a small well insultated room.

(4 1/3) / (1 2/3) = (make the two numbers proper fractions)
(13 / 3) / (5 / 3) = (the "/ 3" on the left and right cancel out each others)
13 / 5 = (go to lowest term)
2 3/5

multiply each by 5 to get whole numbers. your ratio will be 35:26
