let me explain lad, when finding lowest term you want to find whats the largest number that goes into the top and bottom, i correct myself it is not 1/4 and i got back to my 2/9 statment because it is not 32 but 36

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

\[\frac{8}{36}=\frac{\frac{8}{4}}{\frac{36}{4}}=\frac{2}{9}\]
