- - Look for a common factor of both the top and bottom numbers.

==> 5 is a common factor of 45 and 100.

- - Divide the top and bottom numbers by their common factor.

==> 45/100 = 9/20.

- - Look for another common factor of both the top and bottom numbers.

==> The only common factor now is ' 1 '.

==> That means the fraction is now as simplified as it can get.
