Question

Which fraction has the greatest value?

5/6

1/6

-1/6

-5/6​

Answer 1

5/6

Explanation:

First things first, negative numbers always have a lower value than positive numbers and so -
`(1)/(6)` and -
`(5)/(6)` is definitely not the answer.

Secondly, imagine that an apple pie is divided into 6 equal parts, and one person gets 5 of the 6 parts and the other got 1 of the 6 parts. Person A would get 4 more parts of the 6 parts than Person B so it shows that
`(5)/(6)` is more than
`(1)/(6)`.

Thus, the fraction with the greatest value is 5/6
