To solve this problem, we first simplify the fraction 3/12 to 1/4 by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 3. Then, we divide 1/4 by 4, which is the same as multiplying 1/4 by 1/4. When we multiply fractions, we multiply the numerators together (1 * 1 = 1) and the denominators together (4 * 4 = 16), resulting in the final answer of 1/16.

It depends on what exactly you mean:

(3/4)/12=3/(4*12)=3/48=1/16 [which is most likely what is being asked]

On the other hand,

3/(4/12)=3*(12/4)=3*3=9

Division is NOT associative.

So (3/12)/4 is not the same as 3/(12/4)

The first is 1/16, the second is 1.
