Question

How many times does 1/4 go into 9/16

Answer 1

Answer as a fraction = 9/4

Answer in decimal form = 2.25

================================================

Explanation:

1/4 = 4/16 after multiplying top and bottom by 4

We have some number x such that

(4/16)x = 9/16

we can multiply both sides by 16 to clear out the fractions, getting 4x = 9

Then we divide both sides by 4 to get x = 9/4 = 2.25
