puipuii10: 3/4 of 16(of means multiply in maths) 3/4 × 16 then you divide 16 by 4 and it comes as 3 × 4 and we multiply 3 and 4 and the answer is 12

\frac{3&times16}{4&times1}&#x3d\frac{48}{4} &#x3d12

Here's a little tip for you. Any number can be converted to fraction if you use 1 as the denominator:

\frac{16}{1}

So now that we've converted 16 into a fraction, to work out the answer, we put the fraction 3/4 side by side with our new fraction, 16/1 so that we can multiply those two fractions.

That's right, all you need to do is convert the whole number to a fraction and then multiply the numerators and denominators. Let's take a look:

\frac{3&times16}{4&times1}&#x3d\frac{48}{4} &#x3d12

In this case, our new fraction can actually be simplified down further. To do that, we need to find the greatest common factor of both numbers.

You can use our handy GCF calculator to work this out yourself if you want to. We already did that, and the GCF of 48 and 4 is 4.

We can now divide both the new numerator and the denominator by 4 to simplify this fraction down to its lowest terms.

\frac{48}{4} &#x3d12

\frac{4}{4}&#x3d 1

The complete and simplified answer to the question what is 3/4 of 16 is:

{\huge{\red{\boxed{\green{\boxed{\blue{\boxed{\orange{\boxed{\pink{\boxed{\mathcal\purple{12}}}}}}}}}}}}}
