Answer 2

Answer:

We can't compare unless denominator is same . Take LCM of them which is 12 and make equal to it.

$\frac{5}{6} \times \frac{2}{2} \: \: \: \: \: \: \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{6}{6} \: \: \: \: \: \: \frac{1}{4} \times \frac{3}{3} \\ \\ \frac{10}{12} \: \: \: \: \: \: \frac{6}{12} \: \: \: \: \: \frac{3}{12}$

So 5/6 is close to 1/2
