Answer:

Explanation:

12÷16=3

Solution with Steps

12÷16=?

Dividing two fractions is the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal (inverse) of the second fraction.

Take the reciprocal of the second fraction by flipping the numerator and denominator and changing the operation to multiplication. Then the equation becomes

12×61=?

For fraction multiplication, multiply the numerators and then multiply the denominators to get

1×62×1=62

Since 6 divided by 2 equals 3 then,

62=3

Therefore:

12÷16=3

Solution by Formulas

Apply the fractions formula for division, to

12÷16

and solve

1×62×1

=62

=3

Therefore:

12÷16=3
