Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that,
A building is 34 inches wide. Its 14 inches is concrete, 12 inches is brick, and 8 inches is limestone. We need to find the fraction of the wall is brick.
A fraction is in the form of x/y. y is total value and x is a part of y.
Here, 12 inches is brick. So, its fraction is :
[tex]F=\dfrac{12}{34}=\dfrac{6}{17}[/tex]
So, fraction of [tex]\dfrac{6}{17}[/tex] is the wall which is brick.
