Question 117658: factor the polynomial as completely as possible

(((x^2-5/6x+1/6)))

X^2-5/6X+1/6
USING THE QUADRATIC EQUATION:
WE GET:
X=(5/6+-SQRT[-5/6^2-4*1*1/6])/2*1
X=(5/6+-SQRT[25/36-4/6])/2
X=(5/6+-SQRT[25/36-24/36])/2
X=(5/6+-SQRT1/36)/2
X=(5/6+-1/6)/2
X=(5/6+1/6)/2
X=(6/6)/2
X=1/2 ANSWER
X=(5/6-1/6)/2
X=(4/6)/2
X=4/6*1/2
X=4/12
X=1/3 ANSWER.
