Answer: 36
Step-by-step explanation:
If 5/6 = 180
lets find what 1/6 equals
To do this lets divide 180 by 5 to find 1/6
[tex]\frac{180}{5} =36[/tex]
Therefore, 1/6 = 36
We know 180/5 will give us the answer because 180 is already 5/6 of the total; dividing by 5 will give us 1/6 of the total. Ex: if we had 4/6 of the total, we would divide by 4 to find 1/6.
Anyways, we can check our answer by doing:
36*5 = 216 then taking 5/6 of 216, which should equal 180
[tex]216*\frac{5}{6} =180[/tex]
Therefore, we know 36 is the correct answer
