Question

Adina read 60 out of 100 pages in a comic book. write the fraction of the pages she read in simplest form

Answer 1

there 100 pages

she read 60/100 pages

she have 40/100pages left

Answer 2

60   ← Amount she read
---
100  ← Amount of pages there are 

Find the lowest common factor.

In this case, we can say that it's 20. So, divide both the numerator and denominator by 20.

60 ÷ 20          3
---            = -------
100 ÷ 20        5

There is no other way to simplify this, so 3/5 is the most simplified version of 60/100.
