Multiply the numerators and multiply the denominators:

$
\frac 3 7 \times \frac 3 {14} = \frac 9 {98}
$

Now see if there are any common factors shared by both numerator and denominator. The only factor of the numerator is 3, and 3 does not divide into 98, so as shown this fraction is already in its simplest form.
