Answer:

A and B

Explanation:

- 3/5 is less than -1/5 because it is farther away from 0 on a number line (also, when it comes to figure out which inequality is true with negative number, the smaller one is going to be greater because it is closer to 0 on a number line)

3/5 is greater than 1/5 because they are both positive and 3/5 is the bigger number

-1/5 is not less than -3/5 because if A is true, than this cannot be true because it is saying the exact opposite.
