- A1/4
- B1/6
- C1/12
- D1/3
Convert to common denominator (12): 1/2 = 6/12, 3/4 = 9/12, 2/3 = 8/12. Largest is 9/12 (3/4), smallest is 6/12 (1/2). Difference = 9/12 - 6/12 = 3/12 = 1/4. Wait, 3/12 = 1/4. Let me recheck options. Option A is 1/4. My selection was C. The explanation is correct for 1/4. So the answer should be A. Difference = 9/12 - 6/12 = 3/12. When simplified, 3/12 is 1/4. So the correct option is A.
