Answer: one fourth
Fourth is a word that used to describe a number value of 1/4. To answer this question, you need to change the number you got (3/12) into x/4 form. To convert 12 into 4, then you need to divide the numerator and denominator with 3. The equation would be (3/3)/(12/3)= 1/4.
To determine how much fourth the number has, you need to divide the result with 1/4. The calculation would be: (1/4)/ (1/4)= one fourth
