You can tell right away 5/6 isnt the smallest then 1/3 is smaller than 3/7 so that leaves 2 answers since 1/3 of 14 is 4 . 666666 so 1/3 is the smallest
To find which one is the smallest, we must first give the fractions a common denominator. That number happens to be 42. Rewriting the fractions results in:
<span>3/7 becomes 18/42 1/3 becomes 14/42 5/6 becomes 35/42 9/14 becomes 27/42 </span> When placed in this format, we can see that 1/3 is in fact the smallest. Hope this helps :)
