Answer 1

Carmen Has completed 1/2 of her math homework.

Billy has completed 7/12 of the same assignment.

Let say

the whole assignment = x

Carmen has completed

$\frac{1}{2}\text{ of x=}\frac{1}{2}x$

Billy has completed

$\frac{7}{12}\text{ of x=}\frac{7}{12}x$

Therefore, the least is Carmen .
