In mathematics, when we refer to a fraction being in its simplest form, we mean that the numerator and denominator have no common factors other than 1. Fractions that are not in simplest form would have common factors between the numerator and denominator that can be further reduced. For example, 4/8 is not in simplest form because both 4 and 8 can be divided by 4 to simplify the fraction to 1/2. Similarly, 10/15 is not in simplest form as both 10 and 15 can be divided by 5 to simplify the fraction to 2/3.

2/4 and 6/8 are not in simplest form... anything that can be broken down even further is not in simplest form. simplest form of these two would be 1/2 and 3/4.
