Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
It is reasonable: the answer is both reasonable and correct because 5/12 - 2/5 = 1/60. This is because using cross multiply, 5 x 5/12 = 25/60, 12 x 2/5 = 24/60. 25/60 - 24/60 = 1/60.
Both are closer to half: half out of 12 would be 6/12 and 0 would be 0/12, so 5/12 is closer to half because 5/12 is closer to 6/12 than 0/12. Half out of 5 would be 2.5/5 and 0 would be 0/5, so 2/5 is closer to half because 2/5 is closer to 2.5/5 than 0/5.
The difference is close to 0: 1/60 is very close to 0. It's only worth 0.01<u>6</u>.
