Answer:
See below.
Step-by-step explanation:
5/6 is a fraction. The 5 is in the numerator, and the 6 is in the denominator.
The denominator is the number of parts the unit was divided into. In this case, the denominator is 6. That means one unit, 1, was divided into 6 equal parts. Each part is one-sixth.
The numerator is the number of those parts that you use. 5 in the numerator means to use 5 of those parts, each of which is 1/6 of 1.
In other words, 5/6 means divide 1 into 6 equal parts, and take 5 of those parts.
5/6 is the same as 5 divided by 6, so as a decimal it is 0.8333...
As a percent it is 83.333...%
