Set up a proportion...
3/4 = X/96
Cross Multiply...
4X = 3(96)
4X = 288
Divide by 4...
X = 72

3/4 * 96/1 = 288/4 = 72

96 X 3/4 (or .75)
72

3/4 = x/96
3*96 = 4x
288 = 4x
288/4 = 72
Is the long way. Or
96/4 = 24
24*3 = 72
Or, if you have a calculator
(3/4)96 = 72

3/4*96 can be reduced to 3*24, which is 72. Hope this helps. :)

Divde 96 into four parts. (24) Then add three of them together. (72) Long way to do it, but it helps you see that 72 is 3 of four equal parts. add 72+24 and it equals 96. 3/4 means three of four equal parts. Don't be afraid of fractions. They are just parts of a whole. The bottom number tells you how many parts. The top number tells you how many are there.
This could have been done quicker, but I sensed you needed to understand fractions.
