That depends on which one is missing. If one of the flat prongs is missing then it may not even work at all. If the cylindrical one is missing then it will most likely work fine. If it is a high input device you're running then it may trip the breaker because it's having to draw more amperage through 2 rather than 3 plugs.

In North America the most common plug (cap) is a parallel blade with a 15 amp rating. This is the one that plugs into wall receptacles that are found in the home. The most likely pin that is missing is the ground pin. Older homes, before grounding was a thing to be thought of, used to be only two parallel blades. It was during the transition from one type to the grounding type that the grounding pin went missing. A three bladed plug (cap) would not fit into the old type receptacles so it was broken off. Another factor was that manufactures were dragging their heels about adding the new three pin caps. It was something to do about the additional cost of the new style. Today everyone is on board and using the same types of caps on all of the products that are manufactured. A missing ground pin on a cap leaves you open to getting a shock from a device should it fault to ground. Without the return path to trip the breaker through the ground pin, you could be brought up to the same potential as the supply voltage and if you touch something that is grounded under this condition you could get seriously hurt.

If it is Java, you could try reinstalling it. I've been successful with that in the past.
Can you explain how three fourths is least than five sixths?
When you have three fourths of something, one fourth is still missing. If you have five sixths of something, only one sixth is missing, so you have more than if one fourth is missing (one sixth being a smaller portion missing than one fourth). If you had ninety-nine one hundredths, only one one hundredth would be missing, meaning you would have nearly the whole thing.
