I guess you want to simplify this:-

60 / 108 = 30/54 (dividing top and bottom by 2)

= 15/27 ( divide by 2 again)

= 5/9 Answer (dividing top and bottom by 3)

I take it you want to know what this reduces down to. List both using prime factors. Cancel the highest common factor.

60: 2 * 2 * 3 * 5

108: 2 * 2 * 3 * 3 * 3

The highest common factor are the bolded factors. 2*2*3 = 12

What is left over is 5 and 9 which is the fraction 5/9

5/9 is your answer
