    1/12 of a cheesecake.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    This problem is a division problem; 5/6 of a cheesecake between 10 people. So, we can write out the division statement.

    5/6 : 10

    This is the same as

    5/6 · 1/10

    Multiply the numerators, then the denominator.

    5 · 1 = 5

    6 · 10 = 60

    5/60 = 1/12

    So that means each coworker gets 1/12 of the 5/6 cheesecake.
