Write the numerator 5 as 5*1

So we have 5/6 = (5*1)/6

We can then pull the 5 out and say (5*1)/6 = 5*(1/6)

The fraction 5/6 is equivalent to 5*(1/6) which is the result of multiplying the whole number 5 by the unit fraction 1/6

Note: A unit fraction is any fraction where the numerator is 1 and the denominator is some larger whole number.
