Hey! So, when dividing fractions, always keep "keep, switch, flip" in mind. This means you keep the first term, change the division sign to multiplication, and use the reciprocal of the remaining number. Let's do it. So we have 5/6 (which we keep), then we change the sign to multiplcation, but we have a small problem - this is a mixed number. Fortunately for us, there's an easy fix. To convert it into a improper fraction, we see that there is 2 1/6, meaning two sets of 6/6 and adding 2/6. Therefore, 2/16 = 13/6. So, we have 5/6 times 13/6, equalling 69/36. Hope this helped :D
