At a track meet, jacob and daniel compete in 220 m hurdles. daniels finishes in 3/4 of the a min. jacob finishes with 5/12 of a min remaining. who ran the race in faster time?

Jacob has the faster time because if you make the fractions equal you would make the denominators equal by rounding 3/4 to have a denominator of 12 making it 9/12 which is larger then 5/12 making Daniel's time slower then Jacob's.
