So the question is what is 8/32 in the simplest form. To find out we need to simplify the fraction. In this case the nominator and the denominator are both multiple of 8 so the nominator is 8=1 8 and 32=4 8 so we can write (1 8)/(4 8) and we see that we can cancel out number 8 and get 1/4 which is the simplest form of the fraction.
