Question

simplify to lowest terms!!!

18 over 82

Answer 1

The simplest form to write it is: 9 over 41

Answer 2

Answer:

$\frac{9}{41}$

Step-by-step explanation:

First, I factor the number: $\:18=2\cdot \:9$

$=\frac{2\cdot \:9}{82}$

I'm going to factor the number again.

$82=2\cdot \:41$

$=\frac{2\cdot \:9}{2\cdot \:41}$

Finally, cancel the common factor, 2.

$=\frac{9}{41}$
