Questions: Write 3/6 in lowest terms.

Solution Steps

To reduce the fraction \(\frac{3}{6}\) to its lowest terms, we need to find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the numerator and the denominator and then divide both by this GCD.

We start with the fraction \( \frac{3}{6} \).

To reduce the fraction, we need to find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the numerator (3) and the denominator (6). The GCD is \( 3 \).

We divide both the numerator and the denominator by the GCD: \[ \text{Reduced Numerator} = \frac{3}{3} = 1 \] \[ \text{Reduced Denominator} = \frac{6}{3} = 2 \] Thus, the fraction in lowest terms is \( \frac{1}{2} \).
