Solution

The correct option is B $5 \frac{5}{6}$
Sarah has 35 birdseed bags and 6 birds feeders.
So, she would have to divide the 35 birdseed bags equally among 6 birds feeders.
Each bird feeder would get $\frac{35}{6}$ bags.

divisor = 6
quotient = 5
remainder = 5
$∴ \frac{35}{6}$ can be written as $quotient \frac{remainder}{divisor}$ i.e. $5 \frac{5}{6}$
