Solution for fraction 16/12 to simplified form

Follow these easy steps to simplify 16/12-

Given fraction is => 16/12

16 = Numerator

12 = Denominator

• Greatest Common Factor(GCF) of the numerator and the denominator :
GCF(16,12) = 4


• The greatest common factor of the numerator[16] and the denominator[12] is 4.
• Now divide the numerator[16] and the denominator[12] by 4.
=> 16 ÷ 4/12 ÷ 4 = 4/3
= 4/3
