To find out, the 2 fractions need to have the same denominator.
4/12, 8/12
(multiply top and bottom by 2)
4/6 is bigger

Answer: 4/6 is greater than 4/12
4/6 > 4/12
To solve for this, lets simplify each fraction
4/12=1/3
4/6=2/3
Now that they both have a common denominator, and since 2/3 is greater than 1/3, it is easy to see that 4/6 is greater than 4/12.
