Answer:

:)

Explanation:

The question is asking for the square root of twelve.

If you multiply the 2 and 6, you get twelve.

Simplofy the fraction, you get one half.

If something is to the power of one half, we need the square of it. Yet 12 does not have a square root so you decide your format of answer, under a radical, or to the power of one half.
