Answer:

height = 8/3

Explanation

I'm assuming that this is a question to a triangle. So since an area of a triangle is 12 you solve by the formula 1/2(base)(height). You would solve for height so your equation would look smth like this: 12 = 1/2(base)(height). So you would end up with 24/8 which would simplify to 8/3.
