Step-2: Rewrite the numerator and denominator as the product of the primes
`12/20=(2 xx 2 xx 3)/(2 xx 2 xx 5)`

Step-3: Remove the common factors `2,2`

`=(cancel{(2)} xx cancel{(2)} xx 3)/(cancel{(2)} xx cancel{(2)} xx 5)`

`=3/5`

Standard form of `12/20` is `3/5`
2. Standard form of rational number of `25/30`

Solution:
`25/30`

Step-3: Remove the common factors `5`

`=(cancel{(5)} xx 5)/(2 xx 3 xx cancel{(5)})`

`=(5)/(2 xx 3)`

`=5/6`

Standard form of `25/30` is `5/6`
3. Standard form of rational number of `35/100`

Solution:
`35/100`

Step-3: Remove the common factors `5`

`=(cancel{(5)} xx 7)/(2 xx 2 xx cancel{(5)} xx 5)`

`=(7)/(2 xx 2 xx 5)`

`=7/20`

Standard form of `35/100` is `7/20`
