1. Calculate the total singing time by multiplying the number of songs by the duration of each song:
   $$
   \text{Total time} = 12 \times \frac{3}{8}.
   $$

2. Multiply the numerator with 12:
   $$
   12 \times \frac{3}{8} = \frac{12 \times 3}{8} = \frac{36}{8}.
   $$

3. Simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 4:
   $$
   \frac{36 \div 4}{8 \div 4} = \frac{9}{2}.
   $$

Hence, Ivanna sang for a total of $$\frac{9}{2}$$ minutes.
Ivanna sang for $$ \frac{9}{2} $$ minutes, which is 4.5 minutes.
