Simplifying a fraction (reducing it to the lowest terms), such as 89/2, means expressing the same value more clearly and concisely.

Step-by-step simplification of 89/2

  1. Start with computing the GCD of 89 and 2: GCD(89, 2) = 1.
  2. Divide the numerator by the GCD: 89/1 = 89
  3. Divide the denominator by the GCD: 2/1 = 2
  4. Combine these results to form the new simplified fraction: 89/2

The final result is: 89 2 = 89 2

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