Course 3
2-1 Rational Numbers
The goal of simplifying fractions is to make the numerator and the denominator relatively prime. Relatively prime numbers have no common factors other than 1.
Course 3
2-1 Rational Numbers
You can often simplify fractions by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the same nonzero integer. You can simplify the fraction to by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 3.

2-1 Rational Numbers
Decimals that terminate or repeat are rational numbers.
To write a terminating decimal as a fraction, identify the place value of the digit farthest to the right. Then write all of the digits after the decimal point as the numerator with the place value as the denominator.
