Hi there! M4 at EVMS looking to help you achieve your goals!
First, 5/-6 is the same as -5/6
So, -5/6 = -.833 and -3/4 = -0.75.
Since we are dealing with negative numbers here, the greater number will be closer to zero while the lower number will be further away from zero (in other words, more negative).
-3/4 is closer to zero that -5/6 and, therefore, will be the greater of the two.
Hope that helps!! :)
