Answer:

[tex]\large\boxed{5/8}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

16/10

We need to keep the fraction, but still simplify.

We can do this by dividing both the numerator by the same amount

Let's start with 2

(16 ÷ 2) / (10 ÷ 2)

8/5

This fraction is now in lowest terms, it cannot be simplified anymore as not whole number goes into both 5 and 8 evenly.

[tex]\large\boxed{5/8}[/tex]
