What is 144 ÷ 12?

To find the value of 144 divided by 12, you can think of division as finding out how many times a number fits into another number. In this case, you are determining how many groups of 12 can be made from 144.

When you divide 144 by 12, you can calculate it step by step:

1. Since 12 times 10 equals 120, that's a start, but there are still more to account for.

2. Continuing, 12 times 11 equals 132, which is still less than 144.

3. Going further, 12 times 12 equals 144, perfectly matching the number you started with.

From this process, you see that 12 goes into 144 exactly 12 times without any remainder. This understanding of how multiplication and division relate helps you confirm that the result of dividing 144 by 12 is indeed 12.

Thus, the correct answer is 12, reflected in the given choice.
