Answer:

The answer is C

Explanation:

1) The faster way to do that is to divide 5 by 6


(5)/(6) = 0.833 \\ 7 (5)/(6) = 7 + (5)/(6)

2) Then, let's add that to the whole number 7 in that mixed number:


7 + 0.83 = 7.83

3) So we can write, based on that;


7.8 < 7 \: (5)/(6 ) < 7.9 \\ \\ or \: 7.80 < 7.83 < 7.90

So, The answer is C
