Answer :

The unknown part of the circle is 1/6.

In the question, we are given that the provided circle represents a whole, or 1. We are asked to determine the unknown part of the circle using subtraction.

Fractions of the circle given to us are 5/12, 1/12, and 1/3.

Thus, the total part of the circle, that has been given to us is 5/12 + 1/12 + 1/3

= (5 + 1 + 4)/12

= 10/12

= 5/6.

The remaining part of the circle can be calculated by subtracting the given part of the circle from the whole, that is,

the remaining part of the circle = Whole - Given part of the circle,

or, the remaining part of the circle = 1 - 5/6,

= (6 - 5)/6

= 1/6.

Thus, the unknown part of the circle is 1/6.
