((1)/(6))/(x)=(1)/(2)


(1)/(6)=(1)/(2).x


((1)/(6))/((1)/(2))=x


(1)/(6).(2)/(1)=x


(2)/(6)=x


(1)/(3)=x

We want to solve for x

(1/6)/x = 1/2

We multiply both sides by x to get the x in the numerator

1/6 = x*(1/2)

We can divide both sides by 1/2 to get the x alone on the right side

(1/6)/(1/2) = x

When simplified...

x = 1/3
