So if were to turn these into decimals we would have to find a number between .5 and .833..... Now to determine what number that is in between we would add .5 and .8333 in which we would then divide to find the number exactly between them both... \(\Huge{\frac{.5+.8333}{2}=?}\)

A

That would be incorrect.... \(\Huge{\frac{.5 + .8333}{2} = .666...}\) Now we would divide each fraction in the answer choices and the one that equals \(\Large{.666...}\) would be the answer...
