Solution
(i) `2/3 ÷ 1/2 = 2/3 xx 2/1 = 4/3` = 1.33 (> 1)
(ii) `2/3 ÷ 2/1 = 2/3 xx 1/2 = 1/3` = 0.33 (< 1)
(iii) `6 ÷ 1/4 = 6 xx 4/1` = 24 (> 1)
(iv) `1/5 ÷ 1/2 = 1/5 xx 2/1 = 2/5` = 0.4 (< 1)
(v) `4 1/3 ÷ 3 1/2 = 13/3 ÷ 7/2 = 13/3 xx 2/7 = 26/21` = 1.24 (> 1)
(vi) `2/3 xx 8 1/2 = 2/3 xx 17/2 = 17/3` = 5.67 (> 1)
