Question

Write a fraction less than 1 with denominator of 6 that is greater than 3/4

Answer 1

5/6=83% greater than 75% but less than 1.




So 5/6

Answer 2

Answer: 5/6

WORKINGS

The denominator of 3/4 is 4
The fraction we are to write has a denominator of 6
Lowest common multiple of 4 and 6 is 12
Therefore, we have to re-write 3/4 with 12 as the denominator

Multiply both numerator and denominator of 3/4 by 33/4 = 9/12

Since 1 = 12/12
The fractions are less than 1, but greater than 3/4 are therefore, 10/12 and
11/12

Reduce both numbers to their lowest factor
10/12 = 5/6
11/12 cannot be further reduced

Therefore, the fraction less than 1 with denominator of 6 that is greater than 3/4 is 5/6
