Solution Steps

Step 1: Understand the Equation

The given equation is:

\[ \frac{8}{12} + \frac{\square}{12} = 1 \]

We need to find the value of \(\square\) that makes the equation true.

Step 2: Simplify the Equation

To solve for \(\square\), we first need to isolate it. We can do this by subtracting \(\frac{8}{12}\) from both sides of the equation:

\[ \frac{\square}{12} = 1 - \frac{8}{12} \]

Step 3: Perform the Subtraction

Calculate the right-hand side:

\[ 1 - \frac{8}{12} = \frac{12}{12} - \frac{8}{12} = \frac{4}{12} \]

Step 4: Solve for \(\square\)

Now that we have:

\[ \frac{\square}{12} = \frac{4}{12} \]

We can see that \(\square = 4\).

Final Answer

The value of \(\square\) is \(\boxed{4}\).
