Express 6 divided by 5 as a fraction.

To write a fraction in its simplest form means the numerator and denominator can no longer be divided by the same whole number exactly or evenly.

Answer: The value of 6 divided by 5 as a fraction is 1⅕.

Let us write 6 divided by 5 as a fraction.

Explanation:

We can write 6 divided by 5 as 6/5.

As 6/5 is an improper fraction so when we divide the 6 by 5, we'll get 1 as quotient and 1 as remainder.

To convert an improper fraction into a mixed fraction, we take quotient 1 as a whole part and in the fractional part remainder 1 as the numerator, and divisor 5 as the denominator.

The GCF of 1 and 5 is 1. So, divide both the numerator and denominator by the GCF to simplify the fraction and convert it to a mixed fraction.

⇒ 6/5 = 1⅕.

Thus, 6 divided by 5 as a fraction in simplest form is 1⅕.
