If 9 counters represent the whole set, to find five-thirds of the set, you multiply 9 by ( \frac{5}{3} ). This calculation gives you ( 9 \times \frac{5}{3} = 15 ). Therefore, there are 15 counters in five-thirds of the set.
Three thirds make up a whole.
there are three thirds in a whole
To find out how many whole ones are in 12 thirds, we need to divide 12 by 3 (since there are 3 thirds in a whole). 12 divided by 3 equals 4, so there are 4 whole ones in 12 thirds.
