First i got all the factors of 24 which are 1,2,3,4,6,8,12,and 24. Then i got the factors of 32 and they are, 1,2,4,8,16,and 32. after that i divide 24 and 32 by the common number and since there is three i picked eight. So 32 divided by 8 is 4 and 24 dvided by 8 is 3. So the answer is 3/4
24/32=3/4

Sydney-
24/32 reduces to 3/4
24 divided 4 is 6 divided by 2 3.
32 divided 4 is 8 divided by 2 4.

24/32
24(1,2,3,4,,6,*8*,12,24)
32(1,2,3,4,5,6,*8*,11,16,32)
_24_ by _8_=_3_
32 by 8 = 4
I listed the fractions of 24 and 32. The common factor is 8, so you divid the N. and D. by 8 then get 3/4

Frederick-
The first thing i did was find out the factors of 24 and 32 which are 1,2,4,6,8,12 and for 32 are 1,2,4,8,16. Then i did 8 divied by 24 which is 3, and then i did 32 divied by 32 which is 4.

The first thing to do is to list all of the factors
I then found the biggest factor they both had (8) and then divided them by it so my answer was then 3/4
