15/65
By cancelling down/reduction.
We note, in this case, that both numbers end in '5'.
So '5' is a common factor; 5 x 3 = 15 and 5 x 13 = 65
So cancel down/reduce by '5'
15/65 = 3/13
Since both '3' & '13' are prime numbers this will NOT reduce any further.
Hence
15/65 in its simplest form is 3/13.
NB Any number, however large or small, that ends in '5' or '0' , has '5' as a common factor. Refer to your '5' times multiplication table.
