  1. One year is 12 months.

    1 year = 12 months

    So, that means that, 1 month is 1 over 12 of a year

    It's the same for your question.

    The number of years in 1 month is 1 / 12 (1 over 12)

    So,

    The number of years in x months is x / 12 (x over 12)

    The answer is the second one. => x over 12


  2. m over 12
