how do you find 1/4 of 48

Answer 1

1/4 of 48 means you multiply 1/4 by 48.
1/4 * 48
note that we can rewrite 48 as 48/1 since any number divided by 1 is equal to itself. thus rewriting,
1/4 * 48/1
to multiply fractions, we multiply numerator by numerator and denominator by denominator. (note: numerator-the number above the line; and denominator-the number below the line),, thus
1/4 * 48/1 = (1*48)/(4*1) = 48/4 = 12
