To simplify 12 over 16, you need to find the greatest common factor (GCF) of both numbers, which is 4. Divide both the numerator (12) and the denominator (16) by the GCF to simplify the fraction. Therefore, 12 over 16 simplifies to 3 over 4.

Both 16 and 12 can be divide by for, which results in 4/3.

You can change for thirds into a mixed number. 4 divided by 3 is 1 remainder 1, so as a mixed number, 4/3 is 11/3.
