Yes, that's quite correct.Two thirds is four thirds less than two wholes,and two thirds is one sixth more than a half.
Two lots of one-fourths equals a half.
One half times two (or 1/2 x 2) equals one (1) !
17/3 x 5/2 = 85/6 or 14 and 1/6
Each whole is two halves, so eight wholes are sixteen halves. Adding one half makes the total seventeen halves. Reducing this, of course, is simply eight and one-half.

two wholes
Two lots of one-fourths equals a half.
Twenty-eight fourths is seven wholes (28 divided by 4 is 7). Seven times two is 14.
3 over two
There are 10 tenths in one whole, so to find out how many tenths make up two wholes, you would multiply 10 tenths by 2 wholes, which equals 20 tenths. Therefore, two wholes consist of 20 tenths.
One half times two (or 1/2 x 2) equals one (1) !
17/3 x 5/2 = 85/6 or 14 and 1/6
Ten fifths make two wholes.
Each whole is two halves, so eight wholes are sixteen halves. Adding one half makes the total seventeen halves. Reducing this, of course, is simply eight and one-half.
11.5- You find half of 44 and add .5 to make a whole when the two are added together, to make 23 wholes.
Because: 4 times 1/2 = 2
