Question

In general a quarter is defined as $\frac{1}{4}th$ of the quantity measured. How many months would it be if I talk about 3 quarters in a year?

• A. 3
• B. 6
• C. 9
• D. 12

Answer 1

The correct option is C 9

As we defined a quarter to be $\frac{1}{4}th$ of a quantity which would make 3 months a quarter($\frac{1}{4}\times 12$). 3 quarters in a year would 3x3 = 9 months.
