A) 1/6 B) 1/12 C) 1/20 D) 1/30

Answer 1

Answer:

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Converting each of the given fractions into decimal form, we get

2/3 = 0.66, 3/4 = 0.75, 4/5 = 0.8, 5/6 = 0.833  

Since 0.833>0.8>0.75>0.66  

So, 5/6 > 4/5 > 3/4 > 2/3  

Therefore,  Required Difference = 5/6 - 2/3 = 1/6
