Solve this r/6=5 2/3

First, incorporate the 5 into the 2/3 fraction by multiplying the 5 by the 3 and then adding that quantity by the 2, which now makes the fraction:

17/3

Now set it up with the equation:

r/6 = 17/3

r/6*3 = 17/3*3

r/3 = 17

r/3*3 = 17*3

r = 51

R/6=17/3

3r=17x6

3r=102

r=34
