1/3 is the answer. Find the least common denominator. 5/6 would be 50/60 and 5/10 would be 30/60. 50/60 - 30/60 = 20/30 and is reduced to 1/3

5/6 is already in the reduced form. 5/10 would be 1/2 because you would divide the numerator and denominator both by 5. 5/5=1 and 10/5=2. Therefore, your answer is 1/2. Hope this helps!
