Answer:

The fraction taken from 17 is [tex]$ \frac{16}{3}$[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the fraction that is taken from 17 be 'a'.

Writing the given statement mathematically, we would have:

[tex]$ 17 - a = \frac{17}{3} +  6$[/tex]

⇒ 51 - 3x = 17 + 18

⇒ 51 - 3x = 35

⇒ 3x = 16

⇒ x = [tex]$ \frac{16}{3} $[/tex] is the answer.
