Given 6/12 and you find that you can divide the numerator and the denominator by the same number and still preserve the value of the original fraction. We find 2 goes evenly into 6 and 12 giving the new fraction 3/6. Now we find that we can divide this fraction's numerator and denominator evenly by 3 and still not change the value of the original fraction. The new fraction is 1/2.
Now let us look at 2/4. By employing the same argument, 2 goes evenly in the numerator and denominator yielding 1/2.
