Answer:

-4

Explanation:

-12 times 1/3.

It's pretty much just -12x1, then divided by 3.

-12x1 is equal to -12.

Your equation is now simplified, making it easier to solve.

Your equation is:
(-12)/(3)

-12 divided by 3 is -4, because when a negative number is divided (or multiplied) by a positive number, the quotient (or product) is negative.

-12 x (1/3) = -12/3 = -4.
