You have to figure out all the multiples of the numerator and denominator. So for 6/8 or six eights, we need to figure all the numbers that go evenly into them, excluding 1 and the number itself. 6 has two: 2 and 3. 8 has only one: 2, since 2x2x2 is 8. We can eliminate one of the twos in each of the numbers. This leaves us with 3 and 2x2 which is 4. So it becomes 3/4.
