Make the number 21 using the numbers:
1, 5, 6, 7

you can use:
addition, subtraction, multipliaction and division

I promise you it is straight forward maths and NO tricks... you can only use each number once and you can't use say 15 (the 1 and the 5 together) and you can't do like 5^6 or anything.

No TRICKS.

$$\frac{6}{1-\frac{5}{7}}$$
