Question

Today Ian wants to run less than 7/12 mile write a fraction with a denominator of 4 to red present a distance that is less 7/12

Answer 1

Well you would have to reduce so you can't reduce 7 but you can reduce 12 so you would have to do 12 divided by 4 and then you would get your answer witch would be 7/3

Answer 2

there are 2 fractions you could write, 2/4, which would be 6/12, or 1/4, which would be 3/12
as you can see both are less than 7/12
