Answer: 6

Explanation:

You can multiply the numerator by the numerator and the denominator by the denominator.

The numerator of 12 is 12 and denominator of 12 is 1.


(12)/(1) *(1)/(2)=(12)/(2)

Simplify this fraction and you get 6 over 1 or just 6.

You can also use common sense (not really).

You probably know that 1/2 is one half. To find half of something, you would normally divide by 2. 12 divided by 2 is 6.
