Equivalent fractions appear to be different values, but reduce to the same simplified form. They represent the same part of a whole.

First, change it so that the two fractions have the same denominator (by changing the fractions into equivalent fractions). Once the two fractions have the same denominator, it is simply a case of subtracting the numerators, leaving the denominator the same. Finally, reduce the fraction to its lowest terms (if possible).

6/7 is equivalent to 12/14. It is also equivalent to 24/48. To find an equivalent fraction, multiply the top and bottom by the same number. Or if you want to reduce a fraction, divide by the same number, or factor it out. Equivalent fractions are ones that have the same value but look different.
first you divide the numerator by whatever number and the denominator by the same number and that is your answer.
Reduce them to their lowest terms
To find out if two fractions are equivalent, either reduce them both to their simplest forms (which will be the same number if they're equivalent) or convert them to decimals (which will be the same number if they're equivalent). To make an equivalent fraction of a given fraction, multiply the numerator and the denominator of the given fraction by the same counting number.
If the fractions do not all have the same denominator, find a common multiple of the denominators (ideally the lowest common multiple) and convert the fractions to equivalent fractions with this denominator. Now with all the fractions with the same denominator, add together the numerators. Finally, reduce the fraction to simplest terms, converting any improper fraction to a mixed number.
