Answer:

1/2, 1, 0, 1/2

Explanation:

We can solve this by rounding each fraction to either 0, 1/2, or 1.

The first fraction, 7/12, is pretty close to 6/12, which is 1/2 of 12.

So we can round this to 1/2.

The second fraction, 5/6, is closer to 6/6 (1) than 3/6 (1/2).

So we can round this to 1.

The third fraction, 2/11 is closer to 0 than 5.5/11 (1/2).

We can round this to 0.

4/9 is closer to 4.5/9 (1/2) than 0.

We can round this to 1/2.

Therefore, when we round all of these fractions, we are left with 1/2, 1, 0, 1/2.
