Both 240 and 360 are divisible by 120.  Simplify with this number and you get 2/3.

Both 240 and 360 are divisible by 120. Thus you divide the numerator, 240, by 120 to get 2, and divide the denominator, 360, by 120 to get 3.

well put 240/360 next you can divide by 10 because both have zeros so it equals 24/36  then divide by 12 because both are divisible by 12 to get 2/3
