C.? I think.

anonymous · Answer

No. t was LESS than *12.5* it would be D.

rebeccapink6398 · Answer

wait I was always taught that its like a mouth and eats up the bigger number... I guess it changed in this grade

anonymous · Answer

the smaller side eats the smaller number… for example 1<2

rebeccapink6398 · Answer

yeah that's what I said the bigger eats the bigger and the smaller eats the smaller
