Answer 12

@nicoleced ohh ok, notice that the numerator and the denominator are divisible by the number 9 (sorry I wrote 4) :( so you have simplify by extracting 9 from top and bottom

Answer 13

you now will have, \[\frac{ 45 = (5*9) }{ 36=(4*9) } \] in other words you simplify that 9 from both top and bottom, leaving you with the remaining \[\frac{ 5 }{ 4 }\]

Answer 14

the 9 on the top will cancel out with the 9 on the bottom :)
