the answer is 5/36 because you have to change 1 1/3 into a improper number (4/3) then you have to change 2 5/6 into a improper number (17/6) now you have the fraction the right way you have to copy change opposite copy 4/3 change division to multiplication and then flip 17/6 to make it 6/17 then you work it out like a multiplication problem
hope this helped

The answer is 8/17 because you have to change the fractions to improper fractions then change the division sign to a multiplication sign. Then change the second fraction by flipping the two numbers then multiply and reduce.
