How low should I go in Fat on a low-fat diet plan?

I know that eating low fat foods in a low fat diet is good for you, however I have also researched that some fats in a diet are absolutely necessary. What I am wondering is how Low of fat gram intake should I set my diet at per day? I do not want to outlaw fats and I do not want to consume the bad fats that cause weight gain. Can someone help me here?

    If u eat a bunch of small meals instead of 3 large meals your metabolism will work faster, and don’t eat stuff with ingredients that are hard to pronounce.
