The fraction 6x + 12/10 can be reduced by factoring out the greatest common factor in the numerator, which is 6.
6x + 12 = 6(x + 2)
So the reduced fraction is 6(x + 2)/10.
This can be further simplified by dividing the numerator and denominator by 2:
6(x + 2)/10 = 3(x + 2)/5
Therefore, the fully reduced fraction is 3(x + 2)/5.
6x + 12 = 6(x + 2)
So the reduced fraction is 6(x + 2)/10.
This can be further simplified by dividing the numerator and denominator by 2:
6(x + 2)/10 = 3(x + 2)/5
Therefore, the fully reduced fraction is 3(x + 2)/5.

To factor the numerator of 6x + 12, we need to reverse distribute the common factor of 6.
6x + 12 can be written as:
6(x) + 6(2)
Factoring out the common factor of 6, we get:
6(x + 2)
Therefore, the fully factored form of 6x + 12 is 6(x + 2)/10.
