Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a question of division, the total quantity of paint used will be the amount of paint needed per chair × the number of chairs;

This is an equation, which can be rearranged to give:

Number of chairs painted = total paint used/paint needed per chair

Total paint used = ⅚

Paint needed per chair = ⅙

Therefore:

Number of chairs painted = (⅚)/(⅙)

Number of chairs painted = ⅚ × 6

Number of chairs painted = 5
