2. Irreducible fraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irreducible_fraction

   A fraction that is reducible can be reduced by dividing both the numerator and denominator by a common factor. It can be fully reduced to lowest terms if both are divided by their greatest common divisor. [5] In order to find the greatest common divisor, the Euclidean algorithm or prime factorization can be used. The Euclidean algorithm is ...

3. Fraction - Wikipedia

   For example, is not in lowest terms because both 3 and 9 can be exactly divided by 3. In contrast, is in lowest terms—the only positive integer that goes into both 3 and 8 evenly is 1. Using these rules, we can show that ⁠ 5 / 10 ⁠ = ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ = ⁠ 10 / 20 ⁠ = ⁠ 50 / 100 ⁠, for example.

4. Farey sequence - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farey_sequence

   In mathematics, the Farey sequence of order n is the sequence of completely reduced fractions, either between 0 and 1, or without this restriction, [a] which when in lowest terms have denominators less than or equal to n, arranged in order of increasing size.

5. Irreducibility (mathematics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irreducibility_(mathematics)

   An irreducible fraction (or fraction in lowest terms) is a vulgar fraction in which the numerator and denominator are smaller than those in any other equivalent fraction.

6. Lowest common denominator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lowest_common_denominator

   In mathematics, the lowest common denominator or least common denominator (abbreviated LCD) is the lowest common multiple of the denominators of a set of fractions. It simplifies adding, subtracting, and comparing fractions.

7. Algebraic fraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic_fraction

   The numerator and denominator are called the terms of the algebraic fraction. A complex fraction is a fraction whose numerator or denominator, or both, contains a fraction. A simple fraction contains no fraction either in its numerator or its denominator. A fraction is in lowest terms if the only factor common to the numerator and the ...
