Answer :

To determine which number from the given options satisfies the inequality [tex]\( m > \frac{7}{12} \)[/tex], we need to compare each option to [tex]\( \frac{7}{12} \)[/tex].

1. First, let’s understand what [tex]\( \frac{7}{12} \)[/tex] approximately equals to in decimal form:
[tex]\[ \frac{7}{12} \approx 0.5833 \][/tex]

2. Now, we will compare each option to [tex]\( 0.5833 \)[/tex]:

- Option a: [tex]\( -5 \)[/tex]
[tex]\[ -5 < 0.5833 \][/tex]
Clearly, [tex]\(-5\)[/tex] is not greater than [tex]\( \frac{7}{12} \)[/tex].

- Option b: [tex]\( -9 \)[/tex]
[tex]\[ -9 < 0.5833 \][/tex]
Clearly, [tex]\(-9\)[/tex] is not greater than [tex]\( \frac{7}{12} \)[/tex].

- Option c: [tex]\( -1 \)[/tex]
[tex]\[ -1 < 0.5833 \][/tex]
Clearly, [tex]\(-1\)[/tex] is not greater than [tex]\( \frac{7}{12} \)[/tex].

- Option d: [tex]\( 1 \)[/tex]
[tex]\[ 1 > 0.5833 \][/tex]
Clearly, [tex]\( 1 \)[/tex] is greater than [tex]\( \frac{7}{12} \)[/tex].

Therefore, the number that is a solution to the inequality [tex]\( m > \frac{7}{12} \)[/tex] is:

[tex]\[ \boxed{1} \][/tex]
