For a quick tip, I would say turn that fraction 5/6 into a decimal number & read the question again, You'll understand something.

Extrinix:

Let's not that he uses \(\dfrac{5}{6}\) of a pound per burger, and there is 20 pounds of meat. The keyword(s) to find the equal to is "How many burgers can he make" So that rules out B and D automatically, now, is it 20 pounds of meat divided into \(\dfrac{5}{6}\) pound or is it \(\dfrac{5}{6}\) pound divided into 20 pounds? Well, remember division splits up the items, so you want the amount of stuff you have and divide it by the amount you need, so your answer would be `20 pounds of meat divided into 5/6` = b. Which is what answer choice?
