Explain how to convert a number of months to a fractional part of a year.
Divide the number of months by 


To convert a number of months into a fractional part of a year, you divide the number of months by **12** (since there are 12 months in a year). The formula is:

\[
\text{Fraction of the year} = \frac{\text{Number of months}}{12}
\]

For example, if you have 6 months, the conversion would be:

\[
\frac{6}{12} = 0.5
\]

So, 6 months is half a year, or 0.5 years.
