No, 2/12 is only one-fourth as large as 2/3.

using 6, the LCD:

2/12 = 1/6 (divide both numbers by 2)

2/3 = 4/6 (multiply both numbers by 2)

or using 12, the existing denominator

2/12 = 2/12

2/3 = 8/12 (multiply both by 4)

*if both numerators are the same (2), the larger fraction is the one with the smaller denominator (3, not 12).
