Since the numerator of 18/12 is larger than the denominator, it will be a mixed number. Divide the numerator by the denominator to find the whole number. 18 divided by 12 is 1 with a remainder of 6. The 6 becomes the numerator and the denominator remains 12.

So, the answer is 1 6/1,but it is not in simplest form, so the 6/12 needs to be reduced. Since 6 is the greatest common factor of 6 ans 12, divide the numberator and denominator by 6 to get 1/2.

The answer is 1 1/2.
