Whole Estate: 6/6
Estate gets 5/6
Remaining Estate: 6/6 - 5/6 = 1/6
American Cancer Society gets 1/2 of the 1/6
... Of means multiply
...1/2 × 1/6 = 1/12
ACS gets 1/12 of the Estate

A will states that 5/6 of an estate is to be divided among relatives.
Of the remaining, 1/2 goes to charity. How much goes to charity?
Remaining will be 1/6
1/6 * 1/6 = 1/36 goes to charity
