To subtract one fourth from seven twelfths, first, find a common denominator. The least common denominator of 12 and 4 is 12. Convert one fourth to twelfths: (1/4 = 3/12). Now, subtract: (7/12 - 3/12 = 4/12), which simplifies to (1/3). Therefore, seven twelfths minus one fourth equals one third.
three and one twelfth
2/3 minus 1/12 is 7/12.
To divide seven fifteenths by one twelfth, you multiply seven fifteenths by the reciprocal of one twelfth. The reciprocal of one twelfth is twelve over one. So, (7/15) ÷ (1/12) becomes (7/15) × (12/1), which equals 84/15. Simplifying this fraction gives you 28/5 or 5.6.
The significance if the number minus 1/12 in Physics is that it helps us perform a number of Mathematical calculations. The reason it can do this is because according to some sophisticated analyses, minus one twelfth can represent the sum of all positive integers. This seems absurd, but it is true within the limits of its specialized use.
Seven minus a negative six equals a positive one
three and one twelfth
2/3 minus 1/12 is 7/12.
Expressed as a proper fraction in its simplest form, 2/3 - 7/12 = 1/12 or one twelfth.
2/3 minus 1/12 is 7/12.
Expressed as a mixed number in its simplest form, 2 7/12 - 9 2/3 = -7 1/12 or minus seven and one twelfth. Expressed as a decimal, this is equal to -7.083 recurring (that is, -7.083333...)
seven and seven twelfth
One minus one eighth is seven eighths.
To divide seven fifteenths by one twelfth, you multiply seven fifteenths by the reciprocal of one twelfth. The reciprocal of one twelfth is twelve over one. So, (7/15) ÷ (1/12) becomes (7/15) × (12/1), which equals 84/15. Simplifying this fraction gives you 28/5 or 5.6.
1/6 - 1/12=1/12
Expressed as a proper fraction in its simplest form, 1/5 - 1/12 = 7/60 or seven sixtieths. Expressed as a decimal, this is equal to 0.116 recurring (that is, 0.116666...)
