How to simplify 1/25?

Simplifying a fraction (reducing it to the lowest terms), such as 1/25, means expressing the same value more clearly and concisely.

Step-by-step simplification of 1/25

  1. Start with computing the GCD of 1 and 25: GCD(1, 25) = 1.
  2. Divide the numerator by the GCD: 1/1 = 1
  3. Divide the denominator by the GCD: 25/1 = 25
  4. Combine these results to form the new simplified fraction: 1/25

The final result is: 1 25 = 1 25

Since the GCD is equal to 1, the fraction was already in its simplest form and couldn't be further reduced.
