A1 1/6
B5 1/6
C6 1/6
D1 5/6
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. 1 5/6
1. Six sixths make one whole, so 6/6 = 1.
2. Take one whole group of six sixths out of the eleven sixths.
3. 11 sixths minus 6 sixths is 5 sixths, leaving 5/6 remaining.
4. Combining the whole with what remains gives 1 5/6, so 11/6 = 1 5/6.
