your answer would equal 114 because you would be taking 1368 and dividing it by 12 and your answer would be 114. also, to make sure this is correct take 114 and add 114, 12 times so lets count 114, 228, 342, 456, 570, 684, 798, 912, 1026, 1140, 1254, and 1368. so know you know that your answer is 1368 divided by 12 equals 114, hope this helps!!
