To answer this question you must change the bottom numbers of the fractions so they are the same.

5/12 & 2/6

If you multiply 2/6 by 2 then the bottom number will be the same as the bottom number in the other fraction

5/12 4/12

Now you can see that the fractions are not equal 5/12 is bigger than 4/12, so the answer is no 5/12 is not equal to 2/6
