OpenStudy (anonymous):

So what is your resulting fraction? Did you get it yet?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont know lets see......

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You already found that 13 goes into 26 2 times, right? Well, you have one set of thirteen, which means you have how much of 26?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1/2 maybe i get confused on fractions

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or is it 1/13

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so you have one set of 13 out of the two sets of 13 that you need to have 26.. So yes, 13/26 will reduce to 1/2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah thanks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, 1/13 would be 2/26
