Question

List 2/3 , 7/12 , and 3/4 from greatest to least thanks .

Answer 1

Forget the numerators, focus on the denominators for now. 3 an 4 are both multiples of 12, so we can multiply
`(2)/(3)` by 4 and
`(3)/(4)` by 3 to make all the fractions out of 12. This should make it easier to understand which one is the smallest / biggest.


`(2)/(3)` × 4 =
`(8)/(12)`


`(3)/(4)` × 3 =
`(9)/(12)`

You leave
`(7)/(12)` as it is because it's already out of 12.

Now you can see that obviously,
`(3)/(4)` is the largest fraction, as 9 is the biggest when it's out of 12.
`(2)/(3)` is the second largest as it's 8 out of 12, which is smaller than 9 but bigger than 7. Obviously, the last is one is
`(7)/(12)`.

So the order is:


`(3)/(4)`,
`(2)/(3)`,
`(7)/(12)`.

Answer 2

for this question you should know that:
2/3 = 8/12
and
3/4 = 9/12
so now you can say:
7/12 < 8/12 < 9/12
so:
7/12 < 2/3 < 3/4 :)))
i hope this is helpful
have a nice day
