Answer:
Choice 3. [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Ignore the first part where it gives you the extra information.
The given is 8/12, you would want to find the common factors and further simplify it.
The first thing that pops out to me is 8 and 12 are both divisible by 2 so, lets use 2.
8/2=4
12/2=6
This simplifies the fraction to [tex]\frac{4}{6}[/tex].
Since it's not on the answer choices, further simplify this by dividing this reduced fraction by 2.
4/2=2
6/2=3
Now, we have [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex].
