Well, the greatest common factor of both 24, and 60 is 12. 24 ÷ 12 =2, while 60 ÷ 12 is 5, so the new fraction is 2/5.
The reason I divided the numerator and the denominator by the same number is because you are basically dividing by 1(12/12=1). Anything divided by 1 is itself.

Since 12 is a common factor you would have to divide each by 12. 24/12=2, 60/12=5. So the answer would come out to be 2/5. Hope this helped
