$= \frac{\texttt{12÷2}}{\texttt{20÷2} }$

$= \frac{\texttt{6}}{\texttt{10} }$

$= \frac{\texttt{6÷2}}{\texttt{10÷2} }$

$= \frac{\color{hotpink}\texttt{3}}{\color{hotpink}\texttt{5} }$

Therefore, the simplest form of :-

$\bold{ \frac{\color{olive}\texttt{12}}{\texttt\color{olive}{20}} = \frac{\color{hotpink}\texttt{3}}{\texttt{\color{hotpink}5} }}$
