Parker marks sixths on number line. He writes 5/6 just before 1. What fraction does he write on the first mark to the right of 1?

Answer: 7/6
Step-by-step explanation:
If he is writing sixths, then we have multiples of 1/6.
this is:
0*(1/6) = 0
1*(1/6) = 1/6
.

.
5*(1/6) = 5/6 (the numer he wrote at the left of 1)
6*(1/6) = 6/6 = 1
7*(1/6) = 7/6
So the number next to 1, (at the right of 1) must be 7/6.
You also can find it by adding 1/6 to 1.
1/6 + 1 = 1/6 + 6/6 = 7/6.
