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

four in a half out of five
one third
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
1 and one half
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.
(5/6) or five-sixths
3 and five sixths.
(5/6) or five-sixths
five sixths is larger than a half.
