Question

an you simplify using different numbers 273/315 divided by 3 gets you 91/105 then can you divide 91/105 divided by 3 to get an even smaller number

Answer 1

`(91)/(105)` cannot be further reduced to smaller number by dividing the numerator and denominator by 3. Instead it can be simplified by dividing numerator and denominator by 7.

`((91)/(7))/((105)/(7))=(13)/(15)`

Explanation:

`(273)/(315)` can be simplified by dividing the numerator and denominator by 3.

`((273)/(3))/((315)/(3))=(91)/(105)`

`(91)/(105)` cannot be further reduced to smaller number by dividing the numerator and denominator by 3. Instead it can be simplified by dividing numerator and denominator by 7.

`((91)/(7))/((105)/(7))=(13)/(15)`
