Answer:
The value is 0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
we have to find the two different ways to simplify [tex]\frac{6}{12}[/tex]
First way: By prime factorization
Factors of 6 and 12 are
[tex]6=2\times 3[/tex]
[tex]12=2\times 3\times 2[/tex]
Now, cancel the common factors, we get
[tex]\frac{6}{12}={1}{2}=0.5[/tex]
Second way: Take GCD
[tex]GCD({6:12})=2\times 3=6[/tex]
Divide both numerator and denominator by GCD, we get
[tex]\frac{6}{12}=\frac{\frac{6}{6}}{\frac{12}{6}}=\frac{1}{2}=0.5[/tex]
