3 quarters is 9 twelfths, so 9 twelfths minus 3 twelfths is 6 twelfths, which is also a half.
We convert this to twelfths to give: 10 twelfths + 4 twelfths + 9 twelfths = 23 twelfths or 1 and 11 twelfths.
7 twelfths. Solution: 1. 9 twelfths - 2 twelfths = 7 twelfths 2. 9/12 - 2/12 = 7/12 ============ 7/12. 9 of something minus 2 of the same thing equals 7 of that thing. It makes no difference whether the thing, for example, is apples or pounds/dollars or "twelfths" etc.
5/6
one half is 6 twelfths and 7 twelfths is more than 6 twelfths
3 quarters is 9 twelfths, so 9 twelfths minus 3 twelfths is 6 twelfths, which is also a half.
To find out how many twelfths are in two thirds, we first need to convert two thirds into twelfths. To do this, we multiply the numerator and denominator of two thirds by 4, as 3 times 4 is 12. This gives us 8 twelfths. Therefore, there are 8 twelfths in two thirds.
6/8 = 9/12
18/12 = 9/6 = 3/2
1 third is the same as 4 twelfths, so 6 twelfths plus 4 twelfths is 10 twelfths.
Just get them all to a common base - 4 twelfths + 6 twelfths = 10 twelfths OR 5/6

We convert this to twelfths to give: 10 twelfths + 4 twelfths + 9 twelfths = 23 twelfths or 1 and 11 twelfths.
1/3, 2/6, 3/9
7 twelfths. Solution: 1. 9 twelfths - 2 twelfths = 7 twelfths 2. 9/12 - 2/12 = 7/12 ============ 7/12. 9 of something minus 2 of the same thing equals 7 of that thing. It makes no difference whether the thing, for example, is apples or pounds/dollars or "twelfths" etc.
