Answer:
1 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to convert all of these into one denominator. 1 1/4 needs to be converted into 12ths. 4 x 3 = 12 1 x 3 = 3. Our new fraction instead of 1 1/4 is 1 3/12.
Which is closer to the whole number?
1 1/12 is 1/12 away from a whole number
1 3/12 is 3/12 away from a whole number
1 5/12 is 5/12 away from a whole number
Hope this helps!
