Well, butter my biscuit! Three eighths is the same as six sixteenths. It's like cutting a pie into more pieces - the size may change, but the whole dang pie stays the same. So, three eighths equals six sixteenths.
(1/2) / (1/16) = (1/2) * (16/1) division equals multiplication by the inverse and the inverse of 1/16 is 16/1.= 16/2 = 8Another way to look at it is: 16 sixteenths make one. So half of them make a half ie 8 sixteenths make a half.
Three eighths is the same as six sixteenths - half of six sixteenths is 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.
