Answer:

Equation represent the number of times feliz can drive to or from work with the gas in his tank is
(1)/(12)x=(5)/(6)

Explanation:

The gas tank in felizs car is 5/6 full

When he drives to or from work he uses part of a full tank of gas =\frac{1}{12}

Let x be the number of times feliz can drive to or from work with the gas in his tank

So, He uses part of full tank of gas in x drives =
(1)/(12)x

So, ATQ


(1)/(12)x=(5)/(6)


x=(5)/(6) * 12

x=10

The number of times feliz can drive to or from work with the gas in his tank is 10

Hence equation represent the number of times feliz can drive to or from work with the gas in his tank is
(1)/(12)x=(5)/(6)
