5/6 pages in 2/3 minutes
----> 1 page in (2/3) ÷ (5/6) minutes
= (2/3)(6/5) minutes
= 4/5 minutes
or
5/6 pages in 2/3 minutes
= 5 pages in (2/3)(6) or 4 minutes
= 1 page in 4/5 minutes
or
1/(5/6) = x/(2/3)
(5/6)x = 2/3
x = (2/3)(6/5) = 12/15 = 4/5
----> 1 page in (2/3) ÷ (5/6) minutes
= (2/3)(6/5) minutes
= 4/5 minutes

5/6 pages in 2/3 minutes
