To answer this we need to divide 5 by 6.

First we need to convert the numbers to fractions (since we need a fraction for an answer). 

[tex] \frac{5}{1} \frac{6}{1} [/tex]

When dividing fraction, multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction. (A reciprocal is an upside down fraction)

[tex] \frac{5}{1} * \frac{1}{6} = \frac{5}{6} [/tex]

The answer is [tex] \frac{5}{6} [/tex]
