how did u get 83/3 from 1328/48??

OpenStudy (amistre64):

trying halving it till you cant half it anymore

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You simply divide both the numerator and the denominator with 16. Because its the HCF or Highest Common Factor of 1328 and 48

how to get the 16?

you guys are good

Well there is no shortcut to explaining this. Try reading your textbook on how to find the HCF of two numbers. The easy way out will be what amistre said. You can see both 1328 and 48 are divisible by 4. Divide them by 4 and you'll get 332/12. Divide again and you get 83/3
