Answer

48

Work Step by Step

We can solve these problems by comparing the numerator and the denominator. The numerator in the second fraction is 4 times greater than the numerator in the first fraction, so we know that the denominator of the second fraction must be 4 times greater as well. Thus, we multiply 12 by 4 to find that the missing number is 48.
