Answer:

6/12

Explanation:

Note the shaded amount of "parts". You are supposed to put the shaded amount of parts over the total amount of parts.

In the first rectangle, it shows 2 of 3 parts as shaded, and so the fraction is: 2/3

In the second rectangle, it shows 3 of 4 parts shaded, and so the fraction is: 3/4

Finally, the 3rd rectangle shows 6 of 12 parts shaded, and so the fraction is:

6/12

Check by multiplying the fractions across:

(2/3) x (3/4) = (2 x 3)/(3 x 4) = 6/12

6/12 is your answer.

If you need to simplify, divide common factors from both the numerator and denominator, in this case being 6.

(6/12)/(6/6) = 1/2

1/2 is your reduced answer.
