It's not really reducing the ampere, but rather, limit the current. LED's have low internal resistance, so they will burn out prematurely if the current isn't limited. You can limit the current by wiring a resister in series with the LED.
To determine the resistance needed, use the basic formula:
V
R = -
I
Substitute the forward voltage of the LED for V. Substitute the forward current of the LED for I. The result is the resistance in ohms.
