how many times does 12 go into 43

Answer 1

To find out how many times 12 goes into 43, you can perform the division \( 43 \div 12 \).

Calculating that gives approximately:

\[ 43 \div 12 \approx 3.5833 \]

Since you are asking for how many whole times 12 can go into 43, the answer is 3 times.

To illustrate this, \( 12 \times 3 = 36 \), which is less than 43, while \( 12 \times 4 = 48 \), which is more than 43. Thus, 12 goes into 43 a total of 3 times.
