These math problems focus on simplifying fractions by factoring both the numerator and the denominator to identify common factors that can be cancelled out. This topic involves skills in multiplication, division, identification of factors, and manipulation of fractions. The exercises challenge the students to factorize composite numbers into their prime or simplest components and then simplify the fractions by cancelling out common terms. The problems are structured to provide multiple choices, requiring a clear understanding of elementary factors and fraction simplification.
