Answer:

13/20 simplified and 52/80 not simplified

Step-by-step explanation:

So this is pretty simple.

First: Write out the problem on a piece of paper.

Second: Cross out all the 1's and 2's because those represent a made field goal.

Third: Count the number of 3's, 4's, 5's, and 6's.

Fourth: That gets you to 52. This is your numator.

Fifth: Count the total number of 1's, 2's, 3's, 4's, 5's, and 6's. That is 80. That is now your demoinoator.  

Sixth: 52/80 is simplified to 13/20.
