By converting to a common denominator (convert 1/2 to twelfths), and comparing.
Because 5 is less than half of 12.
Well a saying goes for any fraction, The bigger the denominator (# on the bottom of the bar) the smaller the piece.
yes
One Half.6/12 isequivalentto one half so: 3/12<1/2 (Is Less Than)
no. half of twelve is six and three is less than six. 6/12=1/2
No, one half (1/2) is not equal to seven twelfths (7/12). To compare the two fractions, you can convert them to have a common denominator or decimal form. One half is equivalent to 6 twelfths (6/12), which is less than seven twelfths. Therefore, 1/2 < 7/12.
!less by one twelfth
Well, one half equals six twelfths. You figure it out from there.
Well a saying goes for any fraction, The bigger the denominator (# on the bottom of the bar) the smaller the piece.
no
less
yes
less than
No, they're the same
Yes, because six twelfths would a half.
Yes
