In order to multiply these two numbers, we should first make 12 into a fraction by putting it over the number 1, since dividing by 1 doesn't change the value. (Note: Please ignore the periods, they are there just to keep the numbers spaced apart since Answers.com doesn't let me do that with regular spaces)
3.....12
-- x ----
4......1
When you multiply fractions, you ALWAYS multiply the top times the top and the bottom times the bottom (Note: the top is the numerator and the bottom is the denominator of the fraction). So, doing that we get:
36

4
But we can simplify this! 36 is divisible by 4, so when we divide 36 by 4 we get 9 as our final answer.
Four ... a "quarter" is a fourth. Four into Twelve equals Three. Three times Four is Twelve.
3/4 of 12 = 9
it is one fourth
Three fourths
Three can go into sixty six twelve times
Four ... a "quarter" is a fourth. Four into Twelve equals Three. Three times Four is Twelve.
Three. (And it's quarter not fourth.)
3/4 of 12 = 9
it is one fourth
Three divided by 1/4 is twelve.
one fourth
twelve times one is 12 twelve times two is 24 twelve times three is 36 twelve times four is 48 twelve times five is 60 twelve times six is 72 twelve times eight is 84 twelve times nine is 96 twelve times ten is 108
twelve times one is 12 twelve times two is 24 twelve times three is 36 twelve times four is 48 twelve times five is 60 twelve times six is 72 twelve times eight is 84 twelve times nine is 96 twelve times ten is 108
34, 992 is the answer.
22.2
Three fourths
one fourth of twelve = 31/4 * 12 = 12/4 = 3
