Solution for fraction 5/60 to simplified form

Follow these easy steps to simplify 5/60-

Given fraction is => 5/60

5 = Numerator

60 = Denominator

• Greatest Common Factor(GCF) of the numerator and the denominator :
GCF(5,60) = 5


• The greatest common factor of the numerator[5] and the denominator[60] is 5.
• Now divide the numerator[5] and the denominator[60] by 5.
=> 5 ÷ 5/60 ÷ 5 = 1/12
= 1/12
