In order to find the quotient of the given fractions above, the first thing we need to do is to convert the mixed fraction into an improper fraction.
1 1/3 is 4/3.
So now that we have 4/3 and 5/6, we now proceed to the division process.
4/3 divided by 5/6. The first thing to do is to turn the second fraction upside down which will look 6/5. Then proceed to multiplication.
4/3 x 6/5 and we get 24/15. The last step would be to simplify this and the final answer is 8/5 or 1 and 3/5. Hope this answer helps.
