Today ian wants to run less than 7/12 mile which of the following distances is less than 7/12?

A fraction with a denominator of 4 that is less than 7/12 miles is 1/4.Let the fraction be  x/4. Since this fraction must be less than 7/12 miles, we can write the inequality,  x/4 < 7/12.We now solve the inequality for x to obtain,  x<7/12(4).

This simplifies to x<7/3

This implies that x<2 1/3

This is distance so x is positive.

So we can choose x=1 or x=2.

Therefore the possible fractions include 1/4 or 2/4.

In the simplest form, the most appropriate fraction is 1/4
