72/48 in simplest form is 3/2

You need to find the GCF of both the numerator (72) and denominator (48). The greatest common factor between the two numbers are 24.

Now that we know that 24 is the GCF, we can divide our numerator and denominator by them.

72 ÷ 24 = 3
48 ÷ 24 = 2

Combine our new numerator and denominator to get our simplified form.

The final result is 3/2 or 1.5.
