The fractions can't be reduced or simplified further if it meets any one of the following criteria:
- Both numerator and denominator of the given fraction are prime numbers.
- Either numerator or denominator of the given fraction is a prime number but not a factor of one another.
- GCF (Greatest Common Factor) of numerator and denominator of the given fraction is 1.

Definition and Formula: Simplify Fraction
Fraction simplification is a basic mathematic function used to reduce the fraction to its lowest terms. Either GCF (Greatest Common Factor) or prime factorization is used to reduce the fraction to its simplest form. Dividing both numerator and denominator by GCF or factoring both numerator and denominator and rearranging the number provides simplified term of the given fraction. This simplified fraction calculator is being governed by the below mathematical formula:
