Sagot :

Divide both the numerator and denominator by 3.

21 / 3 = 7
18 / 3 = 6

Therefore the simplest form is 7/6.
What is the simplest form of [tex] \frac{21}{18} [/tex]?

You must find the GCF

Look at the factors of 21:

1,3,7,21

Look at the factors of 18:

1,2,3,6,9,18

Look at the common factors

1,3

So 3 is the GCF

Now divide [tex] \frac{21}{18}[/tex]by[tex] \frac{3}{3} [/tex]=[tex] \frac{7}{6} [/tex]

[tex] \frac{7}{6} [/tex] can be changed to a mix fraction. Divide the numerator(the top-7) by the denominator(bottom-6)

7÷6=[tex]1 \frac{1}{6} [/tex]

Answer:

[tex] \frac{7}{6} [/tex] or [tex]1 \frac{1}{6} [/tex]
