Answer: 1/2

Step-by-step explanation: To write the fraction 6/12 in lowest terms,

we divide the numerator and the denominator by the

greatest common factor of 6 and 12.

Since the factors of 6 are 1, 2, 3, and 6

and the factors of 12 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12,

the greatest common factor of 6 and 12 is 6.

So we divide the numerator and the denominator of 6/12 by 6.

6 divided by 6 is 1 and 12 divided by 6 is 2.

So 6/12 written in lowest terms is 1/2.
