How can we find the fractions of a collection?
Dear student,
The fractional part of a collection is determined by dividing the collection into subgroups equal to the number representing the denominator of the fraction. We then take the number of subgroups equal to the number representing the numerator of the fraction.
Example:
What is 3/4 x 24
1/4 of 24 = 6
Hence 3/4 = 3 x 1/4
3 x 6 = 18
Answer : 18
Regards
