Answer:

Slope = rise/run =3/12 =1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is defined as the rate of change of y wrt x.

Rate of change of y is sometimes named as rise and rate of change of x is named as run.

Given that Rate of change of y i.e. rise is 3 and rate of change of x i.e. run is 12.

Hence slope = 3/12 =0.25
