How can I know that dll is the right version?

Currently, I am using v6.0 for the Newtonsoft.

I am working for the first time on ax 2012 so I don't have any idea about it.

Well, where did you get the file from? You should have selected it there or when extracting the package, if it contains binaries for several framework versions. For example, the latest package from https://github.com/JamesNK/Newtonsoft.Json/releases contain these folders:

It's also possible to explore the content of the file, but just getting the right one is easier.

Assuming you're on AX 2012 R3, use the assembly for .NET Framework 4.5.
