Explanation:

Step1: Find GCD of 10 and 90

The greatest common divisor (GCD) of 10 and 90 is 10, since \(10 = 2\times5\) and \(90 = 2\times5\times9\), so GCD is \(2\times5 = 10\).

Step2: Divide numerator and denominator by GCD

Divide numerator \(10\) and denominator \(90\) by 10: \(\frac{10\div10}{90\div10}=\frac{1}{9}\).

Answer:

\(\frac{1}{9}\)
