Solve for c: c = 5 5/6 x 2

A. 10 5/6

B. 11 2/3

C. 10 2/3

D. 11 5/6

B. 11 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

c = 5 5/6*2

Change the mixed number to an improper fraction

5 5/6 = (6*5+5) / 6 = (30+5) / 6 = 35/6

c = 35/6 * 2

c = 35/6 * 2/1

= 70/6

Now we change it back to a mixed number

6 goes into 70 11 times

11*6 = 66 with 4 left over

11 4/6

We can simplify 4/6 by dividing the top and bottom by 2

11 2/3
