Question

What is 1/6 of one thousand

Answer 1

1/6 is the same as taking 1000 divided by six.

This is because when you multiply the two fractions together, 1000/6 is the solution.

So,

`(1)/(6)* (1000)/(1)=(1000)/(6)\\\\(1000)/(6) = 1000/ 6= (500)/(3) or 166.6666`

Answer 2

1/6 * 1000 = 1000/6 = 166 2/3
