Which would you prefer… …or 100 pennies? …carrying around a 1 dollar bill… Even though they are both equal, a dollar bill is more “simple” because it is 1 piece (compared to 100).

=== = These fractions are equal. However, one is “more simple”. Which one do you think is in simplest form? ½ is in simplest form, since it has fewer pieces.

© 2007 M. Tallman Step 1: Find the GCF of the numerator and denominator. Step 2: Divide the numerator and denominator by the GCF = ÷ GCF: 2 When the numerator and the denominator are the same, the fraction equals 1 whole. Dividing any number by one does not change the value. Example: 9 ÷ 1 = 9 = 2 1
