sixteenths
Halves of thirty-seconds
Sixteenths are fractional parts equal to one divided by sixteen.
In music, a sixteenth note gets one-sixteenth the duration of a whole note—four sixteenths equal one quarter note.
In measurement, sixteenths appear on rulers and tape measures: The board was three and five-sixteenths inches wide.
