Hi all,
How do you write 12ths as mathml? An example would be: How many 12ths are
equal to 5/6 (five sixths). Google has not been of any help with this
one. Nor has any mathml editor that I've tried.
Thanks,
Mike

Is it essential you use '12ths' rather than just the plain text 'twelfths'? I can't say I've ever seen '12ths' (or other values using that abbreviation format) in the mathematical content I've worked with.

Thanks, Nick. I think that the course developer wants the learner to see
it represented that way. I was able to wrap the math in an aria-hidden
span and put the word twelfths in an assistive tech only span after it (aka
on-screen, but clipped to 0px). That seemed to work in NVDA, JAWS, and
VoiceOver.
On the lighter side. I had to check to make sure that I was spelling
twelfths correctly. It's not a word that I write or type often. Almost
never, I'd say.
Thanks again,
Mike
