Answer:

7 / 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Fraction before painting = 5/6

Fraction left after painting = 11/30

Fracrion used = difference of the fraction before painting and fraction left after painting

Fraction used = 5/6 - 11/30

Lowest common factor of 6 and 30 = 30

5/6 - 11/30 = (25 - 11) / 30 = 14/ 30

Fraction used = 14/30 = 7/15
