Answer 2

B

Explanation:

Given:

3 (1/3) , 3(5/12), 3(1/6) , 3(1/4)

Observations :

-all weights have as a whole number 3 so they are the same until we consider the fraction part

- 1/3 is 1 cut is 3 parts is giving us a bigger slices if we cut 1 into 4 parts for 1/4 and then 1 into 6 parts for 1/6

So far we have:

Lightest to heaviest

3(1/6) , 3(1/4), 3 (1/3)

Now we have to see where to put 3(5/12)

if it was 6/12 will be half so because is 5/12 we have a bit less then half

if was 4/12 will be 1/3 so because is 5/12 we have a bit more then 1/3

So we have as final arrangement lightest to heaviest

3(1/6) , 3(1/4), 3 (1/3), 3(5/12)

connect with the names and we have option B
