    No

    Step-by-step explanation:

    In other words, does the sum of 5/18, 1/9 and 1/6 exceed, equal or come out to less than 1/2?

    The LCD of 5/18, 1/9 and 1/6 is 18. Thus, these three fractions are equal to

    5/18, 2/9 and 3/18, and their sum is 10/18, or 5/9. Thus, the part of the page covered with text is 1 less 5/9, or 4/9. No, the text does not cover more than half of the page.
