The answer is four. It will end up being 12 over 3 which is four ---- 2/3 times 6 would be 12/3 or 4. How would you get this answer? The number 6 is the same as 6/1 because 6 is a whole number. (When you divide 6 by 1 you get 6). So, it would be 2/3 x 6/1. Because the 2 and the 6 are both numerators, or the number on top, you multiply them. 6 x 2 = 12. So the new numerator is 12. Next you multiply the denominators, or the numbers on the bottom ( 1 and 3). So, 1 x 3 = 3 making your new denominator 3. Your fraction is now 12/3. But wait, isn't this an improper fraction? Yes! An improper fraction is just a fraction where the numerator is greater than or equal to the denominator. You know the line between the numerator and denominator means to divide. So the last step would to divide 12 by 3. 12 divided by 3 is 4
