Question

Writte a fraction that is less than 5/6and has a denominator of 8

Answer 1

⅝ is  30/48 which is less than 40/48 (or 5/6)

Answer 2

If you divide 5 by 6 to turn it into a decimal, you get 0.83. All you have to do is find a numerator that you can divide by 8 to get a decimal less than 0.83.

So, 1/8, 2/8, 3/8, 4/8, 5/8, or 6/8 would work.
