Answer:

21

Explanation:

Well you basically divide 3 and 1/2 by 1/6 which you would you have to simplify the 3 and 1/2 which is 7/2 and switch the denominator and numerator of the 1/6 which would be 6/1 and after you multiply(7/2 x 6/1=42/2) it would be 42/2 which you would have to simplify by dividing 42 and 2 which is 21. There you go I hope this helps.
