Question
Simplity the following to its lowest term: $\frac{150}{50}$
✓
Answer
$\frac{150}{50}$ Factors of $150$ are $1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, 25, 50$ and $150$ Factors of $50$ are $1, 2, 5, 10, 25$ and $50$ Common factor of $150$ and $50$ is $50$ $HCF$ of $150$ and $50$ is $= 50$
Dividing both the numerator and denominator by $50$,
we get: $\frac{150\div50}{50\div50}=\frac{3}{1}$
Therefore, the simplest form obtained is, $\frac{150}{50}=\frac{3}{1}$
