Answer: 1 and 1/9

Step-by-step explanation: Here, we have 5/6 ÷ 3/4.

Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal.

In other words, we can change the division

sign to multiplication and flip the second fraction.

So here, 5/6 ÷ 3/4 can be rewritten as 5/6 × 4/3.

Now we're simply multiplying fractions so we multiply across the

numerators and multiply across the denominators.

So we have 5 × 4 which is 20 and 6 × 3 which is 18.

Notice that 20/18 is not in lowest terms so we divide the

numerator and the denominator of 20/18 by 2 to get 10/9.

If you would like, you can change this to the mixed number 1 and 1/9

by simply dividing 9 into 10 and putting the remainder over the denominator.
