$10/30=1/3$

To simplify a fraction you have to find a common factor of its numerator and denominator.

Here both numbers end with a digit $0$ , so both can be divided by $10$ . If you do so you get:

$10/30=1/3$

Since the numerator of this fraction is $1$ you cannot perform any further simplification. So finally the simpliest form is

$10/30=1/3$
