Answer 1

To solve \( 6 \div \frac{1}{5} \), we can use the property of division by a fraction, which states that dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal.

So,

\[ 6 \div \frac{1}{5} = 6 \times 5 \]

Now, calculate \( 6 \times 5 \):

\[ 6 \times 5 = 30 \]

Thus, the answer is 30.
