Answer:

A, C

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use a different benchmark for this: 1/2. Half of 5 is 2 1/2, so 3/5 is clearly <em>bigger</em> than 1/2 (since 3 is bigger than 2 1/2). Half of 3 is 1 1/2, so 1/3 is clearly <em>smaller</em> than a half (since 1 is smaller than 1 1/2). We have

1/3 < 1/2 < 3/5

Which, of course, implies that <em>1/3 is less than 3/5</em>, and by being smaller, <em>1/3 is closer to 0 than to 1</em>.
