18/12 is not simplified because each number can be divided by the same number. the greatest number that can still go into both of these numbers is 6. so 18 divided by 6 is 3 and 12 divided by 6 is 2. Now the fraction you have is 3/2, equivalent to 1.5 or 1 and 1/2.

hope this helps

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?
