No, it can't be simplified.

Explanation:

In order to simplify, you need common factors in both the numerator and the denominator.

#18# can be written as #2xx3xx3#
#25# can be written as #5xx5#

So the fraction can be written as #18/25=(2xx3xx3)/(5xx5)#

And there are no numbers above and below that can be canceled.
