Here’s an unnecessarily detailed answer:
When you see the word “of,” it’s safe to assume you need to multiply. For example, if this said “What is 1/3 of 15?” you would write out
1/3*15 = 1/3*15/1 = 15/3 = 5
And you check this by asking “Does 5*3 make 15? Why yes it does, great.”
So now you’ve proven that you answer “What is 1/3 of x?” by multiplying 1/3 by x, and you just follow the same procedure.
1/3*1/4 = 1/12
And now, you know that three 1/12ths make 1/4, which is not particularly intuitive and potentially useful.
