Explain how you know that 7/12 is greater than 1/3 but less than 2/3?

convert all of these to a common denominator:
7/12 , 1/3 , 2/3
---
7/12 = 7/12
1/3 = 4/12
2/3 = 8/12
---
place into compound inequality:
---
(1/3=4/12) < (7/12=7/12) < (2/3=8/12)

set each factor equal to 0

4x-3 = 0

2x-1 = 0

solve for x.

4x-3=0

4x=3

x= 3/4

solve for x. 

2x-1= 0

2x= 1

x= 1/2

eventually after a few more steps, your answer should be 1/2 is less than or equal to x and 3/4 is greater than or equal to x
