In Carolina's class, 6/16 of the children have freckles. of the children with freckles, 1/12 have red hair. what fraction of Carolina's class has red hair and freckles?

(6/16) * (1/12) = 6/192 = 1/32

22/48

thanks

To find the fraction of Carolina's class that has both red hair and freckles, we need to multiply the fractions representing the proportions of children with freckles and red hair.

First, let's find the fraction of children with freckles. We are told that 6/16 of the children in Carolina's class have freckles.

Next, let's find the fraction of children with red hair among those with freckles. We are told that 1/12 of the children with freckles have red hair.

To find the fraction of children with both red hair and freckles, we multiply these two fractions together:

(6/16) * (1/12) = (6 * 1) / (16 * 12) = 6/192

Therefore, the fraction of Carolina's class with red hair and freckles is 6/192.
