In order to divide 3/5 by 6/1 we need to invert the 6/1 and multiply. So, it becomes 3/5 x 1/6. First, we multiply the numerators: 3x1=3 then we multiply the denominators: 5x6=30. The result is 3/30, which can be reduced by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 3. 3/3=1 and 30/3=10. So, the result is 1/10.
