To convert \( \frac{1}{2} \) to twelfths, you can find an equivalent fraction with a denominator of 12.
Since \( \frac{1}{2} \) is equal to \( \frac{6}{12} \) (because \( 1 \times 6 = 6 \) and \( 2 \times 6 = 12 \)), we can say:
\[ \frac{1}{2} = \frac{6}{12} \]
So, \( \frac{1}{2} \) is equal to \( \frac{6}{12} \) in twelfths.
