Find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of 54 and 100. The factors of 54 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 27, 54. The factors of 100 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 25, 50, 100. The GCD of 54 and 100 is 2. Divide both the numerator and the denominator by 2: $\frac{54\div2}{100\div2}=\frac{27}{50}$.

Answer:

$\frac{27}{50}$
