Suppose one honeybee makes 1/12 teaspoon of honey during its lifetime. how many honeybees are needed to make 1/2 teaspoon of honey

N this case we have to have a common denominator in order to compare to the two fractions.
 We know that 2 × 6= 12 
So multiply the numerator and denominator by 6
 × 
Therefore, the amount of honey needed is  teaspoons
So in total 6 bees are needed to make  teaspoons of honey because we know that  is the same as half
