In a proper fraction the numerator is smaller than the denominator. Since every two-digit number is larger than every one-digit number, there must be a one-digit numerator and two-digit denominator comprising 3 digits total. The greatest fraction will be the one with the largest possible numerator and smallest possible denominator. Choose a numerator of 9 (the largest one-digit number) and a denominator of 10 (the smallest 2-digit number). All 3 digits are different. The answer is 9/10.
0258 In general, the smallest number is created by taking the smallest number in the given set of numbers and placing it in the leftmost digit place. Then take the next smallest number in the set and put it one digit to the right of the first. Repeat until you have the number of digits you are looking for.
The smallest six-digit number is 100000 (one hundred thousand), which is also an even number.

Two versions of this question have been merged ... the one that asks forthe smallest 5-digit number, and the one that asks for the largest.If we're talking integers (whole numbers), then-- the largest 5-digit number with no repeating digits is 98,765 .-- the smallest one is 10,234 .-- If decimals are included, then the largest number is the same,but the smallest one is .01234 .

1 The largest five-digit number is 99999 and the smallest six-digit number is 100000, so the difference is one. If you're just looking for an answer to a homework question, that's all you need. For the brainy: Suppose the answer was greater than one. That would mean that there are one or more numbers between the largest five-digit number and the smallest six-digit number that cannot be written with either five or six digits. Either they would have to be written with four or fewer digits, which would make them smaller than any five-digit number, or with seven or more digits, which would make them larger than any six-digit number. If the answer was less than one, it would mean that it would be possible to have a five digit number that was greater than a six-digit one. So the answer must be one.
The smallest six-digit number is 100000 (one hundred thousand), which is also an even number.
The smallest number with no digits repeated would either be zero or one, depending on the set of numbers you want to choose from.
The smallest negative one digit number is -9, and the smallest positive one digit number is either 0 or 1, I'm not sure about the positive.
