Question

which fraction is closer to 1/2, 4/10 or 7/12?

Answer 1

Hello

Answer 2

To solve this problem, you will need to convert all denominators to a common denominator. Do you know how to do this?

Answer 3

look at what you are trying to figure...the best way is to look for common denominators...

between 4/10 and 1/2...you get 4/10 and 5/10

and between 1/2 and 7/12...you get 7/12 and 6/12

since 1/12 is smaller than 1/10, you would go for 7/12

Answer 4

Thanks - converted the denominators and figured it out.

Answer 5

Great.
