Simplify \( \frac{48}{72} \) O \( \frac{4}{6} \) \( \frac{6}{9} \) \( \frac{4}{7} \) \( 0 \frac{2}{3} \)

To simplify \( \frac{48}{72} \), we can divide both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 24. So, \( \frac{48 \div 24}{72 \div 24} = \frac{2}{3} \). Now, looking at your options, none exactly match the simplified form \( \frac{2}{3} \). Let's check the closest equivalent. We can also simplify \( \frac{4}{6} \) by dividing by 2 to get \( \frac{2}{3} \) as well! Therefore, \( \frac{4}{6} \) is equivalent to the simplified form of \( \frac{48}{72} \). So the correct answer is \( \frac{4}{6} \) based on simplification!
