To simplify 1 14/16, you need to first convert the mixed number to an improper fraction.

To do this, multiply the whole number (1) by the denominator (16) and then add the numerator (14):

1 * 16 + 14 = 16 + 14 = 30

Thus, 1 14/16 can be written as the improper fraction 30/16.

Next, simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2:
