To divide 5/12 by 1 1/6, we need to convert the mixed number 1 1/6 into an improper fraction.
1 1/6 = 6/6 + 1/6 = 7/6
Now, we can divide 5/12 by 7/6:
(5/12) ÷ (7/6)
= (5/12) x (6/7)
= 30/84
= 5/14
Therefore, the quotient of 5/12 and 1 1/6 is 5/14.

What is the height of Mrs. Patel’s second plant?
The second plant is 0.25 meters shorter than the first plant, which has a height of 0.6 meters.
Height of second plant = Height of first plant - 0.25 meters
Height of second plant = 0.6 meters - 0.25 meters
Height of second plant = 0.35 meters
Therefore, the height of Mrs. Patel's second plant is 0.35 meters.
Height of second plant = Height of first plant - 0.25 meters
Height of second plant = 0.6 meters - 0.25 meters
Height of second plant = 0.35 meters
Therefore, the height of Mrs. Patel's second plant is 0.35 meters.
