Key property: \(\frac{\sqrt{x}}{\sqrt{y}}=\sqrt{\frac{x}{y}}\)
Since \(\sqrt{36}=6\), we can write: \(\frac{\sqrt{21}}{6}=\frac{\sqrt{21}}{\sqrt{36}}\)
\(=\sqrt{\frac{21}{36}}\) after applying the above property
\(=\sqrt{\frac{7}{12}}\) after simplifying the fraction

Write 6 as \(\sqrt{36}\)
So, \(\frac{\sqrt{21}}{6} = \sqrt{\frac{21}{36}} = \sqrt{\frac{7}{12}}\)
Hence, option D
