If you're looking for the simplified version of the fraction, you have to factor both numerator and denominator.
The numerator is actually already a prime number, so we're good
The denominator factors as 
So, a 3 appears in both numerator and denominator. We can simplify it:

If you want to compute the approximated value of this fraction, simply plug these values into some calculator to get

12:00 will have both hands pointing up
12:30 will have the straight line at the half past part but it will not be exactly on the 12
3:45 it will be past the 3 and exactly on 45 so it will not work
And 6:00 will be a straight line as one hand will be at the 12 and and it will be straight on the 6 as it is on the hour so the answer is d
Answer:
16π
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:

<u>Formula:</u>

Replace the radius in the formula:

Evaluate the area:


Since the question says to determine the area in terms of π, the final answer is 16π.
