Step-by-step explanation:

The two like fractions can be set as x and y (just to use two variables).

One of them is \frac{3}{12}, though, so we can set one of the variables equal to that value (I'm just going to make y=\frac{3}{12}, it doesn't matter which variable you use).

We also know that adding the two variables gives us \frac{1}{3} so now we can make an equation.

x+y=\frac{1}{3} \\x+\frac{3}{12} =\frac{1}{3} \\x=\frac{1}{3} -\frac{3}{12} \\x=\frac{4}{12} -\frac{3}{12} \\x=\frac{1}{12}

Answer:

\frac{1}{12}

Let us name the two triangles as ABC and DEF

By observing the figure

mB=mE=90   (right angled triangle)

mA=mD   (parallel lines property)

mC=mF    (parallel lines property)

Therefore by AAA the two triangles are similar .

The diagram is given below.
