Answer :
He can change 1/6 and 1/3 to make their denominators 12, so it would be 2/12 and 4/12
Answer:
[tex]\frac{1}{6},\frac{3}{12},\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
or
[tex]\frac{2}{12},\frac{3}{12},\frac{4}{12}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
[tex]\frac{3}{12} , \frac{1}{6} , \frac{1}{3}[/tex]
Remember that
To make the comparison of fractions of different denominators easier, multiply each fraction by a unit fraction such that the denominator will be the same in all fractions
Step 1
Multiply [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex] by [tex]\frac{2}{2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{6}*\frac{2}{2}=\frac{2}{12}[/tex]
Step 2
Multiply [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] by [tex]\frac{4}{4}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{3}*\frac{4}{4}=\frac{4}{12}[/tex]
Step 3
Compare the fractions
[tex]\frac{3}{12}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{6}=\frac{2}{12}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{3}=\frac{4}{12}[/tex]
Order them from least to greatest
[tex]\frac{2}{12},\frac{3}{12},\frac{4}{12}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{6},\frac{3}{12},\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
