Answer 1

You have to divide the top (numerator) and bottom (denominator) by the same number.
For this fraction you need to divide by 10. So the correct simplified fraction would be 2/3

Answer 2

You will need to divide the numerator and the denominator by the same number:


`(20)/(30) = (20 / 5)/(30 / 5) = (4)/(6) = (4 / 2)/(6 / 2) = (2)/(3)`
