Hi do I have your attention? That's good because you might be wondering how on earth people can simplify fractions in 5 seconds or less. This is a pretty short video so jump right in!

The method used is you cross out the common digit in the numerator and denominator, then the leftover digits you have are the simplified answer. In this video, the few examples I list are 16/64, 19/95, 26/65, 48/98, 332/830, 163/326.

If you are interested in these types of fractions, you can look them up. They're called screamer or howler fractions. Students love them because it makes your life easier and you can test your teachers on them. Fellow teachers, aren't these just a fun group of fractions? Anyways, don't forget the most important thing, this does not apply to all fractions. These only work for a special group of fractions.
