8 is smallest number to be added to the denominator of 12/5 to get a proper fraction

Step-by-step explanation:

Proper Fraction is a fraction that is less than one, with the numerator less than the denominator.

Let say Smallest number X to be added to denominator of 12/5 to get a proper fraction

=> 12/(5 + X)  <  1

=> 12 < 5 + X

=> 7 < X

=> X > 7

=> X = 8 is smallest number to be added to the denominator of 12/5 to get a proper fraction

12/(5 + 8) = 12/13 is proper fraction as 12 < 13  (numerator < Denominator)
