32 over 36 in simplest form

To simplify this, write out: 32/36. Then divide the numerator and denominator by a common factor.

Because they are both even, I would choose to multiply them both by 2.

That would equal 16/18.

Then you can divide them both by 2 again. You would get 8/9.

There are quicker ways to do this, but I chose this way because I find it easiest.

Answer is:

8/9
