$$\text{true}\text{ and }\frac{3\times 3}{8\times 3}=\frac{9}{24}$$

Cancel out 3 in both numerator and denominator.

$$\text{true}\text{ and }\frac{3}{8}=\frac{9}{24}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{9}{24} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 3.

$$\text{true}\text{ and }\frac{3}{8}=\frac{3}{8}$$
