[tex]\frac{5}{12} \hbox{ and } \frac{3}{4}=\frac{3 \times 3}{4 \times 3}=\frac{9}{12} \\ \\ 5<9 \Rightarrow \frac{5}{12} < \frac{9}{12} \Rightarrow \frac{5}{12} <\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

No, 3/4 is greater than 5/12.

5/12 is not greater than 3/4 because 3/4 is only 1/4 away from becoming a whole number. On the other hand 5/12 is 7/12 away from becoming a whole number. Hope this helped :)
