Question

A group of 16 friends visited an amusement park.When they arrived, 3/4 of the friends wanted to ride the fastest roller coaster first.How many friends wanted to ride?

Answer 1

12 friends wanted to ride

Answer 2

First, divide 16 into fourths.

16/4 (or, how many times does 4 go into 16?) equals 4.

Now, because you need three fourths, simply multiply that number by 3.
4 x 3 = 12

So your answer is 12 friends.

Hope this helps!
