/-means divided by

What is the simplest form?

(2/9) / (5/12) = 2/9 * 12/5 = 24/45 = 8/15

To find the simplest form of the given fraction, you need to divide the numerator (the number above the division line, which is 2) by the denominator (the number below the division line, which is 9).

So, the fraction in its simplest form is:

2 ÷ 9

To simplify this further, you need to check if there is any common factor between the numerator and denominator. In this case, there are no common factors between 2 and 9, so the fraction cannot be further simplified.

Therefore, the simplest form of the fraction is:

2/9
