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.
Oh yes, one third is quite a bit smaller than five sixths. To compare, we can convert one third into two sixths. So five sixths is fully three sixths (equal to one half) larger than a third.
