To simplify the expression \( \frac{8}{8^{\frac{2}{3}}} \), we can follow these steps:

1. Rewrite \( 8 \) using exponents:
\[
8 = 2^3
\]
Thus, we can express the entire expression as:
\[
\frac{2^3}{(2^3)^{\frac{2}{3}}}
\]

2. Simplify the denominator:
\[
(2^3)^{\frac{2}{3}} = 2^{3 \cdot \frac{2}{3}} = 2^2
\]

3. Substitute back into the expression:
\[
\frac{2^3}{2^2}
\]

4. Apply the quotient of powers rule:
\[
\frac{2^3}{2^2} = 2^{3-2} = 2^1 = 2
\]

Thus, the simplified result is:
\[
2
