Answer:

5/5

Explanation:

if you want to divide 1 whole into a fraction then the top number would have to be the same as the bottom number, for example 5/5. The top number is 5 which is the same as the numerator which will equal to 1 whole.

While 1/5 and 3/5 is less than 1 whole

And 5/1 is more than 1 whole but its way past the numerator
