Answer: C. 12/14>22/28

To find this all you have to do is the same denominator, you can either divide 22/28 by 2 or multiply 12/14. But you always want to find the lower number so its easier. You will have to divide 22/28 by 2, you will then get 11/14. When you compare 12/14 with 11/14, you will find that the statement is correct and that 12/14 is greater than 11/14.
