Hello!

Total brownies: 16 (so that's the denominator of the fraction)

Brownies with nuts: 6 (that's the numerator of our fraction)

The fraction is:

[tex]\bf{\displaystyle\frac{6}{16}}[/tex]

Divide the numerator (6) and denominator (16) by 2:

[tex]\bold{\displaystyle\frac{3}{8}}[/tex]

That's the answer.

I hope everything is clear.

Let me know if you have any questions!

Answer:

[tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

⇒ Given:

Conner made 16 brownies.

Put nuts on 6 brownies.

⇒ To Find:

Write the simplified fraction of the brownies that had nuts.

⇒ Solution:

Since Conner made 16 brownies:

16 brownies is the total also known as denominator of a fraction.

Since, Conner put nuts on 6 brownies:

6 brownies is the ones that has nuts also known as numerator of a  fraction.

Thus, the fraction is [tex]\frac{6}{16}[/tex].

It a even number thus, we can simplify:

[tex]\mathrm{Factor\:the\:number:\:}\:6=2\cdot \:3[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{2\cdot \:3}{16}[/tex]

[tex]\mathrm{Factor\:the\:number:\:}\:16=2\cdot \:8[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{2\cdot \:3}{2\cdot \:8}[/tex]

[tex]\mathrm{Cancel\:the\:common\:factor:}\:2[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{3}{8}[/tex]

Therefore, the simplify fraction of the brownies that had nuts is [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex]
