First, find the greatest common factor (GCF) of the numerator and denominator.

Factors of 18: 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18
Factors of 24: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24
Common Factors: 1, 2, 3, 6
GCF: 6

Now, divide the numerator by 6 and the denominator by 6.

18 ÷ 6 = 3
24 ÷ 6 = 4

Set these as your new numerator and denominator.
