Oh, dude, if you take two apples from a total of seven apples, you'll have two apples. It's like magic, right? You didn't lose any apples in the process, don't worry. Math can be tricky, but we got this!

No, 5 out of twelve can be thought of as having 5 apples out of a total of 12 apples. On the other hand, 7 out of twelve can be thought of as having 7 apples out of 12 apples. So 7 out of 12 is larger than 5 out of 12.

Imagine you have apples that you have put into groups, with each group having 5 apples in it. If you take one group, you have 5 apples. This is the same as 5 x 1. 5 is how many apples per group you have. 1 is how many groups you take. If you take two groups of apples, you have 10 apples. This is the same as 5 x 2. Now consider if you don't take any groups of apples. How many apples would you have? You wouldn't have any. This is the same as 5 x 0.
