How to simplify 23/1?

Simplifying a fraction (reducing it to the lowest terms), such as 23/1, means expressing the same value more clearly and concisely.

Step-by-step simplification of 23/1

  1. Start with computing the GCD of 23 and 1: GCD(23, 1) = 1.
  2. Divide the numerator by the GCD: 23/1 = 23
  3. Divide the denominator by the GCD: 1/1 = 1
  4. Combine these results to form the new simplified fraction: 23/1

The final result is: 23 1 = 23 1

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