Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:  Convert the mixed number into an improper fraction

[tex]1 \frac{5}{7}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{7}{7}+ \frac{5}{7}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{12}{7}[/tex]

Step 2:  Multiply to find the area

[tex]\frac{5}{6}*\frac{12}{7}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{60}{42}[/tex]

Step 3:  Convert into a mixed number

[tex]\frac{60}{42}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{42}{42} + \frac{18}{42}[/tex]

[tex]1 \frac{18}{42}[/tex]
