First, let’s break down each piece of the problem. We have the fraction, 16/12, which is also the dividend, and the whole number, or the divisor, which is 44:
Numerator of the dividend: 16
Denominator of the dividend: 12
Whole number and divisor: 44
So, what is 16/12 Divided by 44? Let’s work through the problem and find the answer in both fraction and decimal forms.
What is 16/12 Divided by 44, Step-by-step
First let’s set up the problem:
16
12
÷
44
\frac{16}{12} ÷ 44
12 16 ÷ 44
Step 1:
The first step of this solution is to multiple the denominator of the dividend, 12, by the whole number 44:
12 x 44 = 528
Step 2:
The result of this multiplication will now become the denominator of the answer. The answer to the problem in fraction form can now be seen:
528/16 = 33/1
A fraction that has 1 as its denominator is an improper fraction. So, we should simplify this to just the numerator. Since the numerator is a whole number, there is no reason to write the answer in decimal form.
So,
16 divided by 12/44 =
