We will use the distributive property of division and split the number 72 into a sum of 60 and 12, which makes the division operation easier and allows us to solve the exercise without a calculator.
Note - it's best to choose to split the number based on knowledge of multiples. In this case of the digit 6 because we need to divide by 6.
Note - splitting according to multiples of the dividing digit (in this case 6) by 10 matches and makes the division operation easier.
Reminder - The distributive property of division actually allows us to split the larger term in the division exercise into a sum or difference of smaller numbers, which makes the division operation easier and gives us the ability to solve the exercise without a calculator
We will use the formula of the distributive property
(a+b):c=a:c+b:c
Therefore the answer is option C - 12.
