Question

if 12 counters are 3/4 of a set what is the whole set

Answer 1

12 divided by 3/4 = 12/(3/4) = 12 * 4/3 = 16

Answer 2

12 / 0.75 = 16

Answer 3

Let x = number of counters total


So "if 12 counters are 3/4 of a set", then 3/4x = 12


Now solve for x


3/4x = 12


3x = 12*4


3x = 48


x = 48/3


x = 16


So there are 16 counters total

Answer 4
