🔢 Step-by-step solutions:



#### 1) $\frac{10}{20}$
- GCD of 10 and 20 is 10
- $\frac{10 \div 10}{20 \div 10} = \frac{1}{2}$

#### 2) $\frac{20}{70}$
- GCD of 20 and 70 is 10
- $\frac{20 \div 10}{70 \div 10} = \frac{2}{7}$

#### 3) $\frac{3}{12}$
- GCD of 3 and 12 is 3
- $\frac{3 \div 3}{12 \div 3} = \frac{1}{4}$

#### 4) $\frac{4}{18}$
- GCD of 4 and 18 is 2
- $\frac{4 \div 2}{18 \div 2} = \frac{2}{9}$

#### 5) $\frac{16}{80}$
- GCD of 16 and 80 is 16
- $\frac{16 \div 16}{80 \div 16} = \frac{1}{5}$

#### 6) $\frac{40}{48}$
- GCD of 40 and 48 is 8
- $\frac{40 \div 8}{48 \div 8} = \frac{5}{6}$

#### 7) $\frac{48}{54}$
- GCD of 48 and 54 is 6
- $\frac{48 \div 6}{54 \div 6} = \frac{8}{9}$
