Perform the indicatod operation. \( \frac{-12(-2)}{6-(-2)} \) \( \frac{-12(-2)}{6-(-2)}=\square \) (Simplify your answer. Type an integer or a fraction.)

To solve the expression \( \frac{-12(-2)}{6-(-2)} \), we start by simplifying the numerator and denominator separately. The numerator is: \(-12 \times -2 = 24\) The denominator is: \(6 - (-2) = 6 + 2 = 8\) Now, putting it all together: \(\frac{24}{8} = 3\) So, the simplified answer is \(3\).
