1 5/6 divided by 5 2/5
1) Turn the mixed numbers to improper fractions: 1 5/6= 11/6 and 5 2/5= 27/5
New Equation: 11/6 divided by 27/5
2) Keep the first fraction, change division to multiplication, and do the reciprocal of the second fraction
New Equation: 11/6*5/27
3) Multiply numerator with numerator and denominator with denominator
New Fraction: 55/162
Since you can't simplify 55/162 any further, that will be your final answer.
