multiply by three
then divide by four
Example: 32 x 3/4
32 x 3 = 96
96/4 = 24

You get 3 quarters of a number by multiplying the number by .75; or you can multiply it by .25 and then multiply the product by 3. Or, you can multiply the number by 3, and then divide the product by 4.Half it and half it again. Then times it by 3
You can work out three quarters of something by dividing by the numerator (bottom number) which would be 4 by the number you are finding three quarters of. Then you would times the answer of that by the denominator (Top number) and you will have the answer. For example: 3/4 of 60 60 divided by 4 = 15 15 times 3 = 45 So, 3/4 of 60 = 45 Or you could find a quarter of the number and take the quarter away from the whole number.
3 quarters add 3 quarters = 6
There are five nickels (5¢) in a quarter (25¢) so the rule is: 1) Divide the number of nickels by 5 to get the number of quarters 2) The remainder, if any, is the number of nickels left over For example, if you have 17 nickels, 17/5 = 3 rem 2, so that means you have 3 quarters with 2 nickels remaining. To confirm, 17 nickels are worth a total of 85¢ (5 * 17); 3 quarters = 75¢ so 10 cents - i.e. 2 nickels - would be left over.
divide by 3 then times by 4
a quarter is a fourth (1/4). 3 quarters is 3/4 = 0.75 Think of money: 3 quarters is 75 cents (0.75). To find three quarters of some number, mulitply by 3, then divide by 4 Or you can multiply by 0.75
If half of the number is 20, then the number must be 2 * 20 = 40. Therefore three quarters of the number would be 3 * (40/4) = 30.

Divid your number by 4 then times that number by 3 eg. 20 divide 4 equals 5 5 times 3 equals 15

No matter what the number, there will always be 4 quarters.
You can work out three quarters of something by dividing by the numerator (bottom number) which would be 4 by the number you are finding three quarters of. Then you would times the answer of that by the denominator (Top number) and you will have the answer. For example: 3/4 of 60 60 divided by 4 = 15 15 times 3 = 45 So, 3/4 of 60 = 45 Or you could find a quarter of the number and take the quarter away from the whole number.

An example of a mixed number is: three and three quarters which is 3 and 3/4
-3 and 1/3
