Solution for fraction 21/72 to simplified form

Follow these easy steps to simplify 21/72-

Given fraction is => 21/72

21 = Numerator

72 = Denominator

• Greatest Common Factor(GCF) of the numerator and the denominator :
GCF(21,72) = 3


• The greatest common factor of the numerator[21] and the denominator[72] is 3.
• Now divide the numerator[21] and the denominator[72] by 3.
=> 21 ÷ 3/72 ÷ 3 = 7/24
= 7/24
