Well I don't know. Let's figure it out together.

You said (a number) divided by 12 gives you 9 .

A fraction is the easiest way to show division, so
you can write this equation:

(number) / 12 = 9

Now you can multiply each side of the equation by 12 .
When you do that, you have ...

number = 9 x 12

number = 108 .

Now you know how to find it. That's even better than just
having the answer.
