Answer:

yes

Explanation:

To get the answer, we first convert each fraction into decimal numbers. We do this by dividing the numerator by the denominator for each fraction as illustrated below:

5/6 = 0.833

1/2 = 0.5

Then, we compare the two decimal numbers to get the answer.

0.833 is greater than 0.5.

Therefore, 5/6 is greater than 1/2 and the answer to the question "Is 5/6 greater than 1/2?" is yes.
