So far, Monica has read 5/6 of a book. She has read the same number of pages each day for 5 days. What fraction of the book does Monica read each day?

To find the fraction for each day, we can divide the fraction for 5 days by 5. It will be written as
each day = 5 days ÷ 5

Now input the numbers
each day = 5/6 ÷ 5

transform to multiplication
each day = 5/6 × 1/5
each day = 5/30

simplify
each day = (5:5)/(30:5)
each day = 1/6
