oops! looked at it wrong
change the mixed numbers into improper fractions then flip the second fraction and multiply the two together
1 1/6 = 1*6+1 = 7/6
31/2 = 3*2+1 = 7/2
7/6 / 7/2 = 7/6 * 2/7
= 14/42 (reduce to get 1/3)
hope that explains it.
sorry about the first answer, wasn't paying attention

change to improper fraction by multiplying the denominator by the whole number and add the numerator, then get the reciprocal of your divisor and multiply:
(7/6)(2/7)=2/6 or 1/3
