Given that \(n\) is an integer, for the inequality \(\frac{1}{6} < \frac{1}{n-1} < \frac{1}{3}\) to hold true, \(\frac{1}{n-1}\) must be either \(\frac{1}{5}\) or \(\frac{1}{4}\). Hence, \(n\) must be either 6 or 5.
From \((n - 5)(n - 3) \neq 0\), we can deduce that \(n\) cannot be \(5\) or \(3\). Therefore, since \(n\) is not 5, it must be 6.
Answer: E

\(\frac{1}{6} < \frac{1}{n-1} < \frac{1}{3}\)
Taking the reciprocal of the equation
\(3 < n - 1 < 6\)
Adding 1 throughout the inequality
\(3+1 < n - 1 + 1 < 6 + 1\)
\(4 < n < 7\)
Hence, possible values of n = {5, 6}
\((n - 5)(n - 3) \neq 0\)
Inference: \(n\neq 5\) and \(n\neq 3\)
Therefore only possible value of n = 6
Option E
