Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Multiply the two numbers to find what each equals

5/6 × 18 and 2/3 × 24

2. Make each whole number be divided by one so we can multiply

5/6 × 18/1 and 2/3 × 24/1

3. Multiply the fractions

(5×18)/(6×1) and (2×24)/(3×1)

4. Simplify

90/6 and 48/3

5. Divide

15 and 16

6. So 5/6 of 18 is 15 and 2/3 of 24 is 16, meaning that 5/6 of 18 IS less than 2/3 of 24. True.
