There's no particular reason why they SHOULD be equivalent. Let's examine their decimal values:
2/3 = 0.666
6/8 = 0.750
Can you see now that [6/8] is larger than [2/3] ?
Six and two thirds divided by seven eighths = 713/21
You multiply the two fractions.
three eighths, two thirds, four fifths.
four eighths, which simplifies to one half.
No because 12/36 = 1/3
Six and two thirds divided by seven eighths = 713/21
You multiply the two fractions.
two thirds equals 0.6 and the six goes on and on. five eighths equals to 0.625 so that means two thirds are bigger.
six ninths is equivalent to two thirds
20 thirds
No, but two thirds and six ninths are equivalent fractions. six tenths is equivalent to three fifths.
Two thirds.
three eighths, two thirds, four fifths.
Two thirds and eight twelves
2/8 x 6/3 is 1/2 or 0.5
2/3 plus 6/8 = 17/12 in its simplest form
2 eights
