Question

How do you write the fraction `2/8` in simplest form?

Answer 1

`1/4`

Explanation:

It is `1/4` because you find a common number that both the numerator and the denominator can be divided by. In this case, it is `2`.

`2/2 = 1" "` and `" "8/2 = 4`

You can't divide `1/4` anymore so that is the final answer.
