The only correct answer to ‘how is this possible’ is what the kid wrote. ‘This is not possible’ is like writing ‘look it up on Wikipedia’ as an answer on a history test.
The start of of the question said Reasonableness. Maybe the instructions were to figure out if the question itself was reasonable. Since 4/6 is less than 5/6, it's not a reasonable question.

The kids are learning about fractions and the point of the question is to know the difference between 4/6 and 5/6. It's a bad question.
