Simplify: [tex] \frac{48}{100} [/tex]
Both the numerator and the denominator are divisable by 2.
So:
[tex] \frac{48~ divided ~by~ 2}{100 ~divided~ by~ 2} [/tex] ≈ [tex] \frac{24}{50} [/tex]
Still this fraction can be reduced lower, so divide by two again.
[tex] \frac{24 ~divided~ by ~2}{50 ~divided~ by~ 2} [/tex] ≈ [tex] \frac{12}{25} [/tex]
Now, your final answer that is reduced (simplified) down to its lowest terms would be:
[tex] \frac{12}{25} [/tex]
