What is the result of 12 ÷ 1?

10
11
12
0.12

The correct answer is: 12

The question asks for the result of dividing 12 by 1. When you divide any number by 1, the result is the number itself, because dividing by 1 means you are essentially determining how many times 1 fits into that number. In this case, 1 fits into 12 exactly 12 times, which means 12 divided by 1 is indeed 12. Thus, choosing 12 as the answer is correct, as it directly reflects the principle of division with respect to the number 1.
