I don’t get it! It says “Match each division expression to it’s quotient.” So can anyone help with 1/12 / 1/6 ? Please!

We have two fractions being divided. When we divide two fractions, we flip the second fraction and multiply

1/12 divided by 1/6 = 1/12 * 6/1

-------

From here we multiply straight across.

The numerators multiply to get 1*6 = 6

The denominators multiply to 12*1 = 12

We end up with 6/12 which reduces to 1/2 when you divide both parts by the GCF 6

Final Answer: 1/2
