You divide it like this Example: say you have this fraction 8/3 you would divide 8 by three so how many times does  3 go into 8? 2 times and leaves 2 so now you would have a fraction like this: 2 2/3! Tada tell me if you need something more simple!

Divide both the top and the bottom by the highest number that can divide into both numbers exactly
