if those are fractions being five and two thirds etc... I believe it would be 17/6. if you convert to improper fractions and then get a common denominator to subtract that should do it. Hope that helps.
The answer for your question is A
The black line is shorter than the gray. Let's simplify the rules. (B=Black, W=White, G=Grey
B is less than W which is less than G
That means G is greater than W. B is less than W, which is less than G. Therefore, the black line is not only shorter than the Gray one, but also the shortest out of the three.
