To prepare a dilute solution from a concentrated one, the formula $C_1V_1 = C_2V_2$ is used, where $C_1$ and $V_1$ are the concentration and volume of the concentrated solution, and $C_2$ and $V_2$ are the concentration and volume of the dilute solution. Plugging in the given values: $12.0 \, \text{M} \times V_1 = 0.600 \, \text{M} \times 300.0 \, \text{mL}$, solving for $V_1$ gives $V_1 = 15.0 \, \text{mL}$.
