Answer:
You will have to add 7/24 and 1/3. But to do that you need to find a common denominator. You can times 1/3 by 8 and that will give you 8/24. Then you add 7/24 plus 7/24. The answer to that is 15/24 which we can see is greater then 1/2 because if you divide 24 by 2 it equals 12. So the number above 24 would have to be 12 or less. Now that we know that 15/24 is greater then 1/2 we can subtract 1/2 from 15/24 to find how much more less 1/2 is. You divide 15/24 by 9 so you can get 1.25/2. You can now see that 1/2 is .25 less then 15/24.
Step-by-step explanation:
1/3 and 7/24 is greater than 1/2 by .25
