Answer: 13 1/3

Step-by-step explanation: First find out how many times 6 goes into 80, (which is 13) then find the excess and put it over the original denominator (which would be 6), lastly you need to simplify the fraction which is 1/3.

80/6 = 13.33333

6 x 13 = 78

80 - 78 = 2

13 2/6 = 13 1/3

Answer:

13
(1)/(3)

Explanation:

The closest multiple of 6 less than 80 is 13.

13×6=78

How many are left over?

80 - 78 = 2


(2)/(6) remains, and this can be simplified to
(1)/(3)

13
(1)/(3)

Hope this helps!! (I know it sounds a little complicated but it's easy to understand it with practice :)
