Best Answer

To calculate how many of one number are in another number, simply divide the second number by the first. For instance, to see how many 3's are in 12, divide 12 by 3, which gives 4. Fractions work the same way, though you may want a calculator!

Three-fifths divided by one-third is:

(3/5) / (1/3) = 9/5, or 1.8.

Fractions are sometimes easier to handle when converted to decimal:

1/3 = 0.3333, and 3/5 = 0.6.

You can easily see that there are not quite 2 thirds 'in' 0.6.
