Well, honey, let me break it down for you. Five sixths is larger than one half. Think of it this way: if you had a pie cut into six slices and you ate five of them, you've had more than if you only had half of the pie. Math doesn't lie, darling.

Three sixths is simplified into one half, or 50%.
One sixth plus four sixths equals five sixths, or 5/6.
Three and one third divided by five sixths = 4/1 or 4
Well, isn't that a happy little math question! When you add one-third and one-sixth together, you can simplify it by finding a common denominator, which is six. So, one-third is equal to two-sixths. When you add two-sixths and one-sixth together, you get three-sixths, which simplifies to one-half. Isn't that just lovely?
Four sixths. ^^ You see, 6 is the common denominator, so, you work with one half. Now, you have to make 6 the denominator, right? So, you multiply 2 by 3 and 1 also by three, and then you have to add three sixths and one sixths and you get four sixths.
