Lisa had a set of 12 toy cars. Then she gave her sister 3 cars. What fraction of Lisa's set did she give to her sister?

Asked by JannConforme86

Answer (3)

3/12 is a quarter.
So Lisa had given one quarter (1/4) of her set of cars to her sister.

Lisa gave her sister 4 1 ​ of her set of toy cars. This is calculated by dividing the 3 cars she gave away by the total of 12 cars she initially had. The final fraction is simplified from 12 3 ​ to 4 1 ​ .
