\frac{16}{12} divide both by 4.
You get \frac{4}{3} and have 1.
So the answer is 1 \frac{1}{3}

You need to find a common factor that both the numerator and denominator have. 16 and 12 have common divisible factors of 2 and 4(excluding 1, because 1 is self-defined but doesn't simplify values at all). 

We use the highest factor, in this case, 4. 

Divide 16 by 4 and 12 by 4.

16/4 = 4
12/4 = 3

We put 4 in place of the numerator and 3 in place of the denominator.

\frac{4}{3}

Two 2 1/2 inch plastic strips and two 5 1/3 inch plastic strips are used to form a rectangle. What is the perimeter of the recta
svp [43]
In this question the given information's should be closely noted. The length and width of the perimeter are already given. Based on those information's the answer to the question can be easily deduced.
Length of the rectangle = 2 1/2 inch
                                       = 5/2 inch
Width of the rectangle = 5 1/3 inch
                                         = 16/3 inch
Then
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2 ( Length + Width)
                                        = 2 [(5/2) + (16/3)]
                                         = 2 [ (45 + 32)/6]
                                         = 2 * (77/6)
                                         = 77/3 inch
                                         = 25 2/3 inch
So the perimeter of the rectangle in question is 25 2/3 inch. I hope the procedure is clear to you.

Lisa bought an outfit for<br> $37.67. What is $37.67<br> rounded to the nearest<br> whole number?
almond37 [142]

Answer:

Answer is 38

Step-by-step explanation:

if the first digit in the fractional part of 37.67 is less than 5 then you remove the fractional part to get the answer. If the first digit is 5 or above, then you add 1 to the integer and remove the fractional part to get the answer. First digit is 6 - it is 5 and above, you add 1 to the integer and remove fractional part and get 37.67 rounded to the nearest whole number as 38

Hope this helps
