Firstly it is easiest if you convert them into full fractions (with no whole numbers on the side so the fraction is top heavy)
4 x 12 = 48
7 + 48 = 56
So 4 and 7 twelves is equal to 56 twelves
Similarly we can work out 3 and 11 twelves
3 x 12 = 36
11 + 36 = 47
So this is equal to 47 twelves
Because the denominator is the same, you can simply subtract the nominator:
So you have 56 twelves subtract 47 twelves
56 - 47 = 9. so the answer is 9 twelvles.
This can then be simplified by dividing by three to get,
The answer is 3/4 (three quarters).Josh Twelves is 4' 11".
three fourths
To find three twelves of 16, first calculate one twelfth of 16, which is ( \frac{16}{12} = \frac{4}{3} ). Then, multiply that by 3: ( 3 \times \frac{4}{3} = 4 ). Therefore, three twelves of 16 is 4.
1/4
To determine if three twelves is equivalent to four sixteenths, we can simplify both fractions. Three twelves (3/12) simplifies to 1/4, while four sixteenths (4/16) also simplifies to 1/4. Since both fractions simplify to the same value, three twelves is indeed equivalent to four sixteenths.
3/4 ÷ 3/12 = 3
Eleven (not elevin) twelfths (not twelves) minus (not minise) one fourth is 11/12 - 1/4 = 11/12 - 3/4 = 8/12 which simplifies to 2/3.
3/12 = 1/4
(3 * 12) - (4 * 10) = 36 - 40 = -40 + 36 = -(40 - 36) = -4 It may make it easier for you to do it this way: Subtract the smaller number from the biggest (40 - 36 = 4) Keep the sign of the bigger number (-4)
9/12 = 3/4 or three quarters.
3/12 = 1/4 so 6
3/4 - 11/2 = 3/4-3/2 = 3/4 - 6/4 = -3/4
