Identify GCD: Identify the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the numerator and the denominator to simplify the fraction.The GCD of 16 and 30 is 2.
Divide by GCD: Divide both the numerator and the denominator by the GCD to simplify the fraction.(16÷2)/(30÷2)=8/15
Check for Further Simplification: Check if the fraction can be simplified further. The numbers 8 and 15 do not have any common divisors other than 1, so the fraction is fully simplified.
