3/16 (three sixteenths) 3/8 x 1/2 = 3/16
1/2+3/8=7/8 -lover of math geeks ;) the common denominator is eight, so one half is converted into four eights. Then, three eighths plus four eighths is seven eighthts, so your answer is seven eighths. - A math geek
To determine if three eighths of a mile is more than half a mile, we need to convert both fractions to a common denominator. Half a mile is equivalent to four eighths of a mile. Therefore, three eighths is less than four eighths, which means that three eighths of a mile is indeed less than half a mile.
Yes, one half (1/2) is larger than three eighths (3/8). When converted to a common denominator, one half equals four eighths (4/8), which is greater than three eighths. Therefore, 1/2 > 3/8.
A common denominator is 32.
To find out how much less three-eighths is than one-half, first convert one-half to eighths. One-half is equivalent to four-eighths. Subtracting three-eighths from four-eighths gives you one-eighth. Therefore, three-eighths is one-eighth less than one-half.
Just do the usual steps to add fractions. First, find the common denominator (8, in this case). Second, convert both fractions to the common denominator. Third, add the numerators.
Three eighths is the same as six sixteenths - half of six sixteenths is three sixteenths
