Hi there!

I believe your answer is:  

1 (15/16)

Here’s why:  

⸻⸻⸻⸻

[tex]\boxed{\text{Converting the Fractions...}}\\\\\rightarrow \frac{1}{2}=\frac{1*8}{2*8}= \boxed{\frac{8}{16}}\\\\\text{We would only compare the fractions because we have the same whole number.}\\\\\frac{8}{16} <\frac{15}{16}\\\\\text{Therefore:}\\\\\boxed{1\frac{15}{16} >1\frac{1}{2}}[/tex]
