Answer:

The proper fraction among the given fractions is
(5)/(6)

Solution:

A fraction is the part of a whole number i.e. a numerical value that is not a whole number. They are of three types proper, improper and mixed fraction.

In a fraction, the number on the top is numerator and the number below the numerator is denominator.

In a proper fraction, the numerator will be lesser than the denominator.

In the given values,


(5)/(6) = 5< 6


(4)/(2) = 4>2


(7)/(3) = 7> 3


(9)/(8) = 9> 8

So,
\bold(5)/(6)\bold is a proper fraction and the others are improper fractions.
