To solve this problem, we need to first convert the mixed number to an improper fraction.
The mixed number -1 1/6 can be written as -1 + 1/6. To convert this to an improper fraction, we need to find a common denominator between -1 and 1/6, which is 6.
-1 can also be written as -6/6, since -1 multiplied by 6/6 is -6/6.
Adding -6/6 and 1/6, we get -6/6 + 1/6 = -5/6.
Now, we can divide -5/6 by 7:
-5/6 ÷ 7 = -5/6 × 1/7 = (-5 × 1)/(6 × 7) = -5/42.
Therefore, -1 1/6 divided by 7 as a mixed number is -5/42.
