how much more is 1/6 than 1/12

Question

how many times more is the portion of time spent going on rides 1/16 then the portion of time spent playing games 1/12

 

Answer 1

Just need to compare 6 and 12 and take the inverse.

12 is 2*6, then 1/6 is twice 1/12.

Answer 2

1/12 = (1/2)(1/6)   So 1/12 is one-half of 1/6

 

or

 

(2)(1/12) = 1/6      So 1/6 is twice 1/12
