5 and 6

Explanation:

I’m assuming that you mean 5 1/3

5 1/3 = 16/3 = 5.333333...

Whole numbers are numbers without fractions, which goes from 0 to infinity Eg. 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5....

We can see that 5.33333... is between the whole numbers 5 and 6.

Between 5 and 6

Explanation:

5 1/3 is a mixed number which means that it has a whole number part and a fraction part.

The whole number is 5

The fact that the fraction part is a proper fraction means that the value is more than 5, but not enough to be 6

Therefore 5 1/3 is between 5 and 6 on the number line.
