To make it a fraction form answer, you multiply the whole number by the denominator and make the result the new numerator. The old numerator becomes the new denominator:

6 x 10 /5 = 60/ 5

Thus, the answer to 6 divided by 5/10 in fraction form is:

60 /5

To make the answer to 6 divided by 5/10 in decimal form, you simply divide the numerator by the denominator from the fraction answer above:

60 / 5 = 12

The answer is rounded to the nearest two decimal points if necessary.

60/5 can be simplified to 12/1.

12/1 is an improper fraction and should be written as 12.
