7/12 simplified is 0.58 roughly. 1/4 simplified it 0.25. 3/12 is 0.25 and 6/12 is 0.50. Which one of these is bigger?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6/12

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Correct! So the answer is what? remember it has to be bigger than 2/4 (simplified is 0.50) the only one bigger is in fact 7/12

OpenStudy (igreen):

Yes, so we have 3/12 So we have to find out which one is bigger than 6/12: 7/12, 3/12, 3/12, or 6/12
