One of the easiest ways for knowing if a fraction is greater than another is by converting fractions to decimal numbers. This implies dividing the numerator (top number) by the denominator (bottom number). In the case of fraction, $\frac{1}{2}$ the decimal number is 0.5 considering 1 divided into 2 is equal to 0.5. Now to know if other fractions are greater or smaller, this process needs to be repeated.

Gina: $\frac{3}{8} = 0.375$

Maxine: $\frac{2}{3} = 0.666$

Shari: $\frac{2}{4} = 0.5$

Vanessa: $\frac{3}{12} = 0.25$

According to this, the girl with a heigh increased greater than 1/2 inch is Maxine because 0.666 (Maxine heigh increase) is greater than 0.5 (1/2 inch).
