Answer:
5/12 > 3/8
Step-by-step explanation:

the LCD of 5/12 and 3/8 is 24.
to get a denominator of 24 for 5/12 we would multiply the fraction by 2, which gives us 10/24
to get a denominator of 24 for 3/8 we would multiply the fraction by 3, which gives us 9/24.
10/24 > 9/24
looking back at the original fractions, 5/12 is the largest fraction
