Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To express 1/2 as quarters, sixth, 8th, 12th, 16th and 24th we need to get the equivalent fractions respectively.

We have :

1) Quarters = we multiply both the numerator and denominator by 2.

½ × 2/2 = 2/4

= 2/4 = two quarters.

2) Sixths — multiply both numerator and denominator by 3.

½ × 3/3 = 3/6 = three Sixths

2) Eighths — multiply both numerator and denominator by 4.

½ × 4/4 = 4/8 = four eighths.

3) Twelfth = multiply by 6.

½ × 6/6 = 6/12

= six twelfths.

4) sixteenths = multiply by 8.

½ × 8/8 = 8/16

= eight sixteenths.

5) twenty fourths = multiply by 12.

½ × 12/12 = 12/24 = twelve twenty fourths.
