    2/3 divided by 5/6 ?

    = 2/3 x 6/5

    = 12 / 15

    = 4 / 5

    2/3 / 5/6 = 2/3 * 6/5 = 12/15 = 4/5

    If the problem is (2/3) / (5/6)

    To divide, invert and multiply

    (2/3) * (6/5) = 12/15

    ===

    If 2/3/5/6, do it according to PEMDAS, this is all division, but don't forget the 2nd part, do it "left to right."

    2/3 then 2/3 /(5) = 2/15

    2/15 / (6) = 2/90

    = 1/45
