Step 1

The given expression is 34:16. Note that, 34represents three fourth and16 represents one sixth. Draw the fraction bars for 34and16 as follows. 34=141414...
16=16...............

Step 2

Recall that, the rule for dividing fractions that, “When dividing fractions, take the reciprocal of the second fraction, then multiply. That implies, 34:16=34×61
=184
=92 or 412 So, the answer for the given expressionusing fractionbars can be drawn as follows. 141414...
34616=412 or 4+12111112
16...............
