To divide fractions, we can multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction. The reciprocal of a fraction is obtained by flipping the numerator and the denominator.
So, the reciprocal of 6/7 is 7/6.
Now we can proceed with multiplication:
5/6 * 7/6
The numerator is obtained by multiplying the numerators: 5 * 7 = 35.
The denominator is obtained by multiplying the denominators: 6 * 6 = 36.
Therefore, 5/6 divided by 6/7 is equal to 35/36.
