Two quarters minus two thirds is negative one sixth. Two quarters is six twelfths, and two thirds is eight twelfths. Six twelfths minus eight twelfths is minus two twelfths or minus one sixth.
One. As three quarters of twelve is 9, and two thirds of twelve is 8. :-)
1/2 or .5
5 and four-thirds, ie six and one-third.
If there are three thirds in one, there must be six thirds in two.
seriously? one and a half.. or three and two thirds..

it is three quarters
1 over 2. Of means multiply, so two thirds of three quarters is two thirds times three quarters. When u multiply it normally, it equals six over twelve. Six is half of twelve, so the answer is 1 half. If u can't understand this or u have lik, no idea how to multiply, ask ur math teacher after class or when u and her/him aren't busy. GL with ur hw and stuff :)

No, but two thirds and six ninths are equivalent fractions. six tenths is equivalent to three fifths.
Six quarters - or 1 1/2

Adding fractions to whole numbers: You know that they say that you can't add apples to oranges? Same principle. If you want to add one third to two, you need to convert the two to thirds. In other words, think of a pie; one whole pie is two halves or three thirds or four quarters. Therefore, two is really two three-thirds which is six thirds. That can now be added to one third. The total of adding one third to two is seven thirds. Try another way: one dollar is four quarters. How many quarters would you have if I gave you two more quarters? Six quarters or $1.50. I hope this answers your question. GreenWasabe@gmail.com
