2/3 = 4/6 because you can multiply the top and bottom numbers (numerator and denominator) by any number. However, you MUST multiply both the top and bottom number.

In this case, you multiply 2/3 by 2.

So, it would be 2 times 2 over 3 times 2.

That gets you 4/6.

2/3=4/6, so they are congruent fractions.
