What is the Simplified Form of 1/2? A simplified fraction is a fraction that has been reduced to its lowest terms. In other words, it's a fraction where the numerator (the top part of the fraction) and denominator (the bottom part of the fraction) have no common factors other than 1.

Simplifying a fraction makes it easier to understand and compare the value of the fraction, and it's also often a requirement in many mathematical operations. To simplify a fraction, you divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor until you can't divide anymore.

To simplified any fraction follow those steps, which is given below-

  1. Find the GCD (Greatest Common Divisor) or HCF (Highest Common Factor) for both numerator & denominator.
  2. Then divided that GCD or HCF value both numerator & denominator.
  3. Simplify or reduce the fraction.

For calculation, here's how to simplify 1/2 to its simplest form using the formula above, step by step instructions are given below
