In the first blank, we have to put in the number 72 because it's only separating the fraction 5/12 into a product.


72*(5)/(12)=72*5*(1)/(12)

Then, in the second blank, we have to put in the number 360 because that's the product between 72 and 5.


72*(5)/(12)=72*5*(1)/(12)=(360*1)/(12)

In the third blank, we have to put in the number 12 because that's the denominator


72*(5)/(12)=72*5*(1)/(12)=(360*1)/(12)=(360)/(12)

In the last blank, we have to put in the number 30 because that's the result from the division between 360 and 12.

Hence, the complete expression would be


72*(5)/(12)=72*5*(1)/(12)=(360*1)/(12)=(360)/(12)=30
