To reduce the fraction 8/12, we need to find the greatest common factor (GCF) of the numerator and denominator and then divide both the numerator and denominator by the GCF.
The factors of 8 are 1, 2, 4, and 8. The factors of 12 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12. The largest number that divides both 8 and 12 is 4, so the GCF of 8 and 12 is 4.
Dividing both the numerator and denominator by 4, we get:
8/12 = (8 ÷ 4)/(12 ÷ 4) = 2/3
Therefore, 8/12 as a reduced fraction is 2/3.
