Answer:
41/6 lb
Explanation:
Start with the original problem
5 11/6
1.) Learn the parts of the mixed number. In this case, 5 is a whole number, 11 is a numerator, and the 6 is the denominator.
2.) to turn a mixed number into an improper fraction or a whole number, multiply the denominator times the whole number (6 * 5 = 30) then add the numerator to the value you got (30 + 11 = 41)
3.) If the improper fraction can be simplified then you will most likely need to go ahead and simplify it. In this case, 6 doesn't factor into 41 so you would keep it as 41/6.
