Fractions in their simplest form

I had a look at your results in mathsbuddy and it looks like your group has a good understanding of equivalent fractions.  I would like you all to go to study ladder and have a go at converting fractions into their simplest form.  There are three activities for you to do.  Once you have done this explain (in your own math book) how you convert these three fractions into their simplest forms    25/15           54/24              63/56
