9/16 x 4/12 + 9/16 x (-3/9) is equal to
To solve this problem, we can use the distributive property of multiplication. This property states that:
a x (b + c) = (a x b) + (a x c)
In our case, we have:
- a = 9/16
- b = 4/12
- c = -3/9
Applying the distributive property, we get:
(9/16 x 4/12) + (9/16 x -3/9)
Now, we can simplify each multiplication:
- 9/16 x 4/12 = 3/16
- 9/16 x -3/9 = -3/16
Finally, we add the two results:
3/16 + (-3/16) = 0
Therefore, 9/16 x 4/12 + 9/16 x (-3/9) is equal to 0.
