Answer:

Explanation:

To determine which fraction is longer (greater), you can compare them by finding a common denominator and then comparing the numerators. In this case, a common denominator for 5/6 and 9/10 is 30.

Now, rewrite both fractions with a common denominator:

5/6 = (5/6) * (5/5) = 25/30

9/10 = (9/10) * (3/3) = 27/30

Now, you can see that 27/30 is greater than 25/30. So, 9/10 is longer (greater) than 5/6.
