Best Answer

Five wholes and six over seven is shown as 5 6/7. In fraction form, 5.5 is 5 5/10 or 5 1/2. You can see from looking at the fractions that 5 6/7 is larger, but here's how it breaks down:

The least common multiple of 7 and 2 is 14. You will multiply the fractions in order to have both over 14. This leaves you with 5 12/14 and 5 7/14.

Why is the ones place not called a oneths place?

The -th suffix is used to represent a fraction of a whole.Any digit in the ones place represents wholes, not a fraction of a whole; thus it is the ones and not the oneths place.Because it is to the left of the decimal point.Only the places to the right of the decimal place have the -th suffix which represents a fraction of a whole.The ones place is to the left of the decimal point, so it does not have the -th suffix.
