first convert the mixed number to an improper fraction...rule a b/c=(ac+b)/c
17/2 now divide this by 1/6
(17/2)/(1/6) which is equal to:
(17/2)(6/1) which is equal to:
102/2
51

Well one half = 3/6 so there is three right there and then 6 sixths equals one whole so 6 x 8 = 48 + 3 =
51 sixths in 8 1/2
