2/3, 7/12 and 3/4.

First, let's find a common denominator.

3: 3, 6, 9, 12

4: 4, 8, 12

12: 12

12 it is.

So, we have to multiply each numerator by the amount of numbers the denominator is multiplied to get 12, the common denominator.

3 x 4 = 12 2 x 4 = 8

8/12 is one.

7/12 stays the same.

4 x 3 =12 3 x 3 = 9

9/12 is the last one.

We have made it easy now.

We have 7/12, 8/12 and 9/12.

Pretty easy.

Your answer is
____________

7/12, 8/12, 9/12.

Hope you learn from this so you can understand it!

Glad I could help, and good luck!
