Answer:

5/6

Explanation:

Simplest form is when the fraction, the top or bottom number, can't be any smaller. So since the 5 can't be any smaller while still being even, the fraction is in its simplest form.

The answer is 5/6

Because divide 10/12 by 2. If you can’t do that any more, it’s simplest form
