Detailed Solution


To obtain the simplest form, we need to find the highest common factor, i.e., H.C.F. of numerator and denominator and divide it by the numerator and denominator both.
The fraction = 2 12
H.C.F of 2 and 12 = 2
Now, divide the numerator and denominator both by 2,
= 2÷2 12÷2 = 1 6
Thus, 1 6 is the simplest form of 2 12 .
So, option 1 is correct.
