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.
Answer:
It is 13.56
Step-by-step explanation:
You would have to divide 40.68 by 3. 3 goes 1 time into 4 so it is 10.
1: 40 2: 78 3: 48 4: 26 5: 15 6: 70
