Step 6 T o f ind the lowest term of 205 , let us divide both the numerator and the 460 denominator by the HCF: 205 460 (C) 2016 Edugain (www.Edugain.com) Personal use only, commercial use is strictly prohibited ID : ca-6-Fractions-Ascending-Descending-Order-Reduce-to-simplest-form [30] 205 = 5 460 5 = 41 . 92 Step 7 T hus the lowest f orm of the f raction 205 460 (C) 2016 Edugain (www.Edugain.com) is 41 . 92 Personal use only, commercial use is strictly prohibited ID : ca-6-Fractions-Ascending-Descending-Order-Reduce-to-simplest-form [31] O) 32 75 Step 1 If we divide the numerator and the denominator of 480 by their HCF (Highest 1125 Common Factor), the resulting f raction will be in the lowest f orm. Step 2 Let us now f ind the HCF of 480 and 1125. Step 3 All prime f actors of 1125: 3 | 1125 3 is a factor of 1125 3 | 375 3 is a factor of 375 5 | 125 5 is a factor of 125 5 | 25 5 is a factor of 25 5 |5 5 is a factor of 5 |1 T hus, 1125 = 3 × 3 × 5 × 5 × 5. Step 4 All prime f actors of 480: 2 | 480 2 is a factor of 480 2 | 240 2 is a factor of 240 2 | 120 2 is a factor of 120 2 | 60 2 is a factor of 60 2 | 30 2 is a factor of 30 3 | 15 3 is a factor of 15 5 |5 5 is a factor of 5 |1 T hus, 480 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 5. Step 5 Let's multiply all common f actors of 1125 and 480 to f ind the HCF. T he HCF = 3 × 5 = 15. Step 6 T o f ind the lowest term of 480 , let us divide both the numerator and the 1125 (C) 2016 Edugain (www.Edugain.com) Personal use only, commercial use is strictly prohibited ID : ca-6-Fractions-Ascending-Descending-Order-Reduce-to-simplest-form [32] denominator by the HCF: 480 1125 480 = 15 1125 15 = 32 . 75 Step 7 T hus the lowest f orm of the f raction 480 1125 (C) 2016 Edugain (www.Edugain.com) is 32 . 75 Personal use only, commercial use is strictly prohibited
