\[ \frac{5}{6} - \frac{1}{4} = \frac{7}{12} = 0.58\overline{3} \]

The sum can be computed by rewriting each term over a common denominator, where the least common denominator of \(\frac{5}{6}\) and \(\frac{-1}{4}\) is \(12\). \[ \begin{aligned} \frac{5}{6} - \frac{1}{4} &= \frac{5 \cdot 2}{6 \cdot 2} + \frac{-1 \cdot 3}{4 \cdot 3} \\ &= \frac{10 + -3}{12} \\ &= \frac{7}{12} \end{aligned} \]
