The correct answer is:

5/6.

Step-by-step explanation:

To simplify this fraction, we divide the numerator and denominator by the greatest common factor.

The factors of 10 are: 1, 2, 5 and 10.

The factors of 12 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12.

The greatest common factor of the two is 2.

Simplifying this, we have:

10/12 = (10÷2)/(12÷2) = 5/6.
