What fraction is equal to 4/16

Simplify 4/16

So what number goes into 4 and 16

How about 2

4/2

16/2

2/8.

You can still simplify so lets think of a number that goes into both 2 and 8

How about 2 again since the numerator is 2

2/2

8/2

1/4

So the final fraction is 1/4

If you reduce it to it's simplest form by dividing both sides by the same number (4) the answer should be 1/4
