What you could do here is find a common denominator between 1/5 and 1/6 to find a fraction that doesn't have a denominator of 1/6.

In this case, the least common denominator is 30.

1/5 * 6/6 = 6/30

1/6 * 5/5 = 5/30

So, 5/30 is a fraction that refutes Maria's claim. Hope that helped!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

b/c you might want to say the two fractions in the same denominators,  you might say that 7/35 (1/5) and 5/ 35 (1/7) are the two fractions that would "bookend" the fraction between ... so it would be 6/ 35
