Given a fraction $\\displaystyle \\frac{a}{b}$ then it is in lowest form if $a$ and $b$ have no common factors. 

\n

If $c$ was a common factor then we could cancel the $c$ and we have converted the fraction into a fraction with smaller numbers.

\n

For example the fraction $\\displaystyle \\frac{18}{24}=\\frac{9 \\times 2}{12 \\times 2} = \\frac{9}{12}$ as we can cancel the common factor $2$.

\n

But we are not yet finished as $\\displaystyle \\frac{9}{12}=\\frac{3 \\times 3}{4 \\times 3} = \\frac{3}{4}$ on cancelling the common factor $3$. We cannot go any further as $3$ and $4$ have no common factors (other than $1$, which is never considered as a factor).

\n

Of  course we could have spotted that $6$ was a common factor  as $\\displaystyle \\frac{18}{24}=\\frac{3 \\times 6}{4 \\times 6}=\\frac{3}{4}$ , but it is perfectly OK to do it in stages as we did above. Just make sure that your final fraction does not have common factors.
