One half is three sixths and one-third is two sixths. 3+2=5
The midpoint theorem says the following: In any triangle the segment joining the midpoints of the 2 sides of the triangle will be parallel to the third side and equal to half of it

one half of one sixth is one twelfth
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.
Yes. One sixth is one half of one third to be exact. Two-sixths are equal to one-third, three-sixths is a half, four-sixths is two-thirds, five-sixths is exactly what it is, and six-sixths is a whole.
One half plus one third equals five sixths or about .8333333.
five sixths because it is more than half
five-sixths
Negative one half

Yes, three sixths does equal one third. When simplified, three sixths can be reduced by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 3. This results in one half, confirming that three sixths and one third are equivalent.
No - if the fraction were to have a denominator of 6, then 3/4 would be equal to 4.5/6 or four and a half sixths.
