Oh, isn't that a happy little question! To make one eighth, you would need six twelfths. Just imagine those twelfths coming together like friends on a canvas, creating a beautiful fraction painting. Remember, there are many ways to express fractions, and each one is unique and special.
Well, honey, you need six twelfths to make one half, so you're gonna need three twelfths to make one eighth. Math can be a real trip sometimes, but that's just how the cookie crumbles.
Three twelfths is equal to one fourth, which is equal to two eights.
One fourth is three twelfths. So eleven twelfths minus three twelfths is eight twelfths, which is also two thirds.
Twelve such fractions make one whole.
3x8 is 24 and 2x12 is 24 3/24 is 1/8th 4/24 is 2/12th 7/24 is therefore the answer
six twelfths
the answer is fifteen twenty-fourths
1/8 * 7/12 = 7/96
If you subtract 8532 twelfths from 712 you will get one whole.
The sum of 1/8 and 2/12 is 7/24
Two One-eighth + one-eighth = one quarter
Equivalence of Fractions: One Fourth Is Three Twelfths. In this regard, how many twelfths are there in one whole? What are these new parts called? They are called twelfths because twelve of them fit in one.
To convert fifths to twelfths, we need to find a common denominator for both fractions. In this case, the least common multiple of 5 and 12 is 60. One fifth is equivalent to 12 twelfths, so to make one fifth, you would need 12 twelfths.
no. obviously there are two one eighth to make one two eighth
Eighth only has one syllable. The -th might make it sound like two syllables, but it is only one.
Three twelfths is equal to one fourth, which is equal to two eights.
There are 24 halves in 12, so there must be 1/24 twelves in 1/21/24 = 0.04166Another Take:I may be misunderstanding the question. The above doesn't seem to work too well either. The question originally read: How many twelves are in one half? This did not seem to me to make sense so I changed it to: How many twelfths are in one half? I have noticed that students sometimes will not make a distinction between twelves and twelfths, five and fifths and so forth.The question is How many twelfths (or twelves) are in one half, and not how many halves are in 12. So I conclude that the questioner wants to know that 6 twelfths is equal to half.
Two twelfths (2/12) is also known as one sixth (1/6). To make the number appear larger, another answer is three eighteenths.
