He walks 5/6 of a mile each day.
Multiply the distance each day by the number of days:
5/6 x 5
When multiplying a fraction by a whole number, multiply the numerator ( top number) by the whole number and leave the denominator ( bottom number as is)
5/6 x 5 = (5 x5)/6 = 25/6 now rewrite as a proper fraction:
25/6 = 4 1/6 total miles.
