The weight of the banana with the peel is 5 ounces.

Explanation

Suppose, weight of the banana with the peel is ounce.

As the banana peel weighs $\frac{1}{6}$ of the total weight of a banana, so the weight of the peel $= \frac{x}{6}$ ounce and the weight of a peeled banana $=(x-\frac{x}{6})=\frac{5x}{6}$ ounce.

Given that, an unpeeled banana balances a peeled banana of the same weight, plus $\frac{5}{6}$ of an ounce. So the equation will be......

$x=\frac{5x}{6}+\frac{5}{6} \\ \\ x-\frac{5x}{6}=\frac{5}{6}\\ \\ \frac{6x-5x}{6}= \frac{5}{6}\\ \\\frac{x}{6} =\frac{5}{6}\\ \\ x=5$

So, the weight of the banana with the peel is 5 ounces.
