A:10
B:12
C:14

Answer 1

B

Explanation:

3/4 of 16 is 12 set a relation 3/4 = x/16. 4 x 4 is 16 so multiply 3 x 4 and you get 12 or you can ask siri "what is 75 percent of 16"

Answer 2

B. 12

Explanation:

3/4 can be converted to something over 16. You have to multiply 4 x 4 to get to 16, so do the same with 3, and 3 x 4 is 12. Now the fraction/proportion is 12/16, so they will win 12 games.
