Answer:

D.
\sf (1)/(2) < (3)/(4)

Explanation:

To compare fractions, we can either convert them to decimals or find a common denominator.

Let's convert 1/2 and 3/4 into decimals:

1/2 = 0.5

3/4 0.75

Since 0.75 is greater than 0.5, we can conclude that 1/2 is less than 3/4.The correct answer is:

D.
\sf (1)/(2) < (3)/(4)
