$1 \frac{1}{5}$ $1 1/5$

If we think over it, we could recognise that this question is like

How many 3's are in 6?

Probably the answer is $2$ $2$ , as $6 \div 3 = 2$ $6-:3=2$

So, we divide $1$ $1$ by $\frac{5}{6}$ $5/6$

$\to 1 \div \frac{5}{6}$ $rarr1-:5/6$

$\to 1 \cdot \frac{6}{5}$ $rarr1*6/5$

$\to \frac{6}{5}$ $rarr6/5$

$\Rightarrow 1 \frac{1}{5} = 1.2$ $color(green)(rArr1 1/5=1.2$

So, there are $1 \frac{1}{5}$ $1 1/5$ number of $\frac{5}{6}$ $5/6$ 's in $1$ $1$
