Geoff planted dahlias in his garden. Dahlias have bulbs that divide and reproduce underground. In the first year, Geoff's garden produced 4 bulbs. In the second year, it produced 8 bulbs, and in the third year, it produced 16 bulbs
You have to give them the same denominator so multiply 11/12 by 4 and 3/16 by 3. giving you 44/48 and 9/48. then divied 44 by 9 giving you 4.8888 there for there are 4 whole 3/16 sections of the 11/12 board
