ANSWER - 5/6 IS SMALLER THAN 7/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the least common denominator or LCM of the two denominators:

LCM of 6 and 8 is 24

For the 1st fraction, since 6 × 4 = 24,

5/6=5/6 × 4 = 20/24

Likewise, for the 2nd fraction, since 8 × 3 = 24

7/8 =7/8 × 3=21/24

Since the denominators are now the same, the fraction with the bigger numerator is the greater fraction

20/24 < 21/24 OR 5/6 <7/8
