To find out how many bins of bottles Mia collected, we'll multiply the amount of bins Josie collected by the factor of \( 35/6 \). Mia's collection: \[ \text{Mia's bins} = \left(\frac{1}{2}\right) \times \left(\frac{35}{6}\right) \] To multiply the fractions: \[ \text{Mia's bins} = \frac{1 \times 35}{2 \times 6} = \frac{35}{12} \] Now, to convert \( \frac{35}{12} \) to a mixed number, divide 35 by 12. It goes 2 times with a remainder of 11. So, \( \frac{35}{12} = 2 \frac{11}{12} \). Mia collected \( 2 \frac{11}{12} \) bins of bottles. Hence, the answer is: \( 2 \frac{11}{12} \) bins.
