Answer:

12% is greater

Explanation:

In Mathematics, to compare two numbers the equality and inequality symbols are used. Equality symbol is used when two numbers are equal. Inequalities are used when the first number is greater than or less than the second number. If the first number is greater than the second number, greater than symbol “>” is used. If the first number is less than the second number, less than the symbol “<” is used.

Example: 7 > 5 (Greater than)

3 < 5 (Less than)
