\huge\text{Hey there!}


\mathsf{(5)/(6)/(1)/(3)}


\large\text{Find the reciprocal form of }\rm{(1)/(3)}\large\text{ which is simply }\rm{(3)/(1).}


\mathsf{(5)/(6)/(1)/(3)}


\large\text{Convert your current equation to: }\mathsf{(5)/(6) / (3)/(1)}


\large\text{Multiply the numerators from each other \& also multiply the}\\\large\text{denominators from each other \& you should have your answer.}


\mathsf{(5)/(6) / (3)/(1)}


\mathsf{= (5*3)/(6*1)}


\mathsf{= (15)/(6)}


\mathsf{= (15/3)/(6/3)}


\mathsf{= (5)/(2)}


\mathsf{\approx 2 (1)/(2)}


\huge\text{Therefore, your answer should be: }\\\huge\boxed{\mathsf{(5)/(2)\ or\ 2 (1)/(2)}}\huge\checkmark


\large\textsf{Note: Either of those should work because they are both equivalent to the}\\\large\textsf{current equation that you're solving for.}


\huge\text{Good luck on your assignment \& enjoy your day!}
