To use one as a benchmark fraction in order to compare 6/5 and 5/6, you will use fractions that are equal to one with denominators of 5 and 6. 

Ex:  to compare 6/5 to one, you will write 5/5 for one whole.  6/5 is greater than 5/5.

Ex:  to compare 5/6 to one, you will write 6/6 for one whole.  5/6 is less than 6/6.

This means that 6/5 is greater than 5/6 because 6/5 is greater than 1 and 5/6 is less than 1.

6/5 is greater than 5/6 because 6/5 is greater than 1 and 5/6 is less than 1.

The numbers are given as:

  • 6/5
  • 5/6

Represent both numbers as decimals

  • 1.2
  • 0.8

By comparing the above numbers to 1, we have:

  • 1.2 is greater than 1
  • 0.8 is less than 1

The above highlights mean that:

  • 6/5 is greater than 1
  • 5/6 is less than 1

Hence, 6/5 is greater than 5/6
