Answer:

1. In terms of finding an answer for a question with "of", you have to multiply the two fractions. Do this by multiplying the numerator with each other and the denominator with each other.

• Multiply the numerators: 1 x 1 = 1
• Multiply the denominators: 2 x 6 = 12

2. Now take your two numbers and put them into a fraction, by putting the number you got from the numerator on the top of the fraction and putting the number you got from the denominator on the bottom of the fraction.

• Like this:
  `(1)/(6)` x
  `(1)/(2)` =
  `(1)/(12)`

3. Your answer is
`(1)/(12)`.
