2/? > 4/12

a=4
b=6
c=12
d=24

Answer 1

The answer is 4 or A

Explanation:

hope this helps have a nice day :D

Answer 2

The value that makes the given inequality true is:

a=4

Explanation:

We have to find the value of x such that:

`(2)/(x)>(4)/(12)\\\\\\i.e.\\\\(2)/(x)>(1)/(3)`

Now we proceed with the help of the options.

a)

when x=4

`(2)/(4)=(1)/(2)>(1)/(3)`

Hence, option a is true.

b)

when x=6.

then,

`(2)/(6)=(1)/(3)` which is not greater than
`(1)/(3)`.

Hence, option b is incorrect.

c)

when x=12.

then,

`(2)/(12)=(1)/(6)` which is not greater than
`(1)/(3)`.

Hence, option c is incorrect.

d)

when x=24 then,

`(2)/(24)=(1)/(12)` which is not greater than
`(1)/(3)`.

Hence, option d is incorrect.
