Answer:

5/3 or 1 2/3

Explanation:

when you multiply fractions, you must 'multiply by the reciprocal'

you keep the first fraction the same, then you change the operation to multiplication, and finally you flip the second fraction so the denominator becomes the numerator and vice versa

5/6 ÷ 1/2 is the same as 5/6 × 2/1 = 10/6

always reduced to lowest terms when you can . . .

10/6 equals 5/3
