I believe it is (3*4*4*4)/16=12
hopefully its right and it helped!

Answer 2

Answer: The required expression is,

$\frac{4\times 4\times 4\times 3}{16}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The number of boxes Ray has = 3,

The number of layers of chocolate each box has = 4,

⇒ The total number of layers of chocolates = 4 × 3,

Now, Each layers has 4 rows of chocolate,

⇒ The total number of rows of chocolate = 4 × 4 × 3,

Also, Each row has 4 chocolates,

So, the total number of chocolates = 4 × 4 × 4 × 3,

He distributes these chocolates to his 16 friends,

Hence,

$\text{Total number of chocolate got by each friend}=\frac{\text{Total chocolates}}{\text{Total friends}}$

$=\frac{4\times 4\times 4\times 3}{16}$

Which is the required expression.
