To write the fraction "15 over 45" in a more simplified form, we need to find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the numerator and denominator and then divide both by that GCD.
Step 1: Find the GCD of 15 and 45.
The factors of 15 are 1, 3, 5, and 15.
The factors of 45 are 1, 3, 5, 9, 15, and 45.
The common factors are 1, 3, 5, and 15.
So, the GCD of 15 and 45 is 15.
Step 2: Divide both the numerator and denominator by the GCD.
15 ÷ 15 = 1
45 ÷ 15 = 3
Therefore, the simplified form of "15 over 45" is "1 over 3".
To write the fraction "15/45", you can simplify it by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor.
1. Find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of 15 and 45. The GCD of 15 and 45 is 15.
2. Divide both the numerator and the denominator by the GCD. This gives us:
(15 ÷ 15) / (45 ÷ 15) = 1/3
So, "15/45" can be written as "1/3".
