Explain how you know 7/12 is greater than 1/3 but less than 2/3
Roman55 [17]
7/12
1/3=4/12
2/3=8/12

7/12>1/3
<span>7/12<2/3
</span>

convert all of these to a common denominator:
7/12 , 1/3 , 2/3
---
7/12 = 7/12
1/3 = 4/12
2/3 = 8/12
---
place into compound inequality:
---
(1/3=4/12) < (7/12=7/12) < (2/3=8/12)
