First, you determine the least common factor of both. Since both 8 and 24 are divisible by 8 (8x divided by 8 equals x, and 24 divided by 8 equals 3, then 8x/24 equals x/3.

1. Find greater common factor between the constants 8 and 24.
2. divide both constant by the greater common factor.
Factors of 8: 1, 2, 4, 8
Factors of 24: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24
Greater common factor: 8
8 / 8 = 1; 24 / 8 = 3
8x / 24 = 1 x / 3 = x / 3
