Each number is 4 times larger than the one that precedes it. This becomes obvious once we convert all four numbers to fractions with the denominator of 16:
3/16
12/16 = 3/4
48/16 = 3
192/16 = 12
12/16 is 4 times 3/16
48/16 is 4 times 12/16
192/16 is 4 times 48/16
The two fractions are both equivalent to each other.
No, 12 sixteenths is not the same as three quarters. Twelve sixteenths can be simplified to three quarters, as both represent the same value (0.75 or 75%). Thus, 12/16 equals 3/4.
Three eighths is the same as six sixteenths - half of six sixteenths is three sixteenths
seven sixteenths
Three sixteenths
To find out how many sixteenths are in three-quarters, first convert three-quarters into sixteenths. Three-quarters is equal to ( \frac{3}{4} ), which can be expressed as ( \frac{3 \times 4}{4 \times 4} = \frac{12}{16} ). Thus, there are 12 sixteenths in three-quarters.
The two fractions are both equivalent to each other.
9/16 or nine sixteenths. Decimal=0.5625
Three eighths is the same as six sixteenths - half of six sixteenths is three sixteenths
two sixteenths; or 1/8 th.
seven sixteenths
Three sixteenths
three sixteenths
Instead of "a half", write "eight sixteenths". That doesn't change the value of any numbers, but it makes it a lot easier to subtract the three sixteenths from the eight sixteenths.
Three sixteenths (3/16) in decimal form is 0.1875
8 8/16 or eight and eight sixteenths
One quarter is 1/4 = 4/16 and three sixteenths is 3/16, so one quarter is greater than three sixteenths
