Answer:


(1)/(9)\text{ gallon}

Explanation:

Given,

The total amount of the tomato sauce =
(2)/(3) gallon,

The number of parts in which this amount is split = 6,

∵ Each part is equal,

Thus, the amount in each portion =
\frac{\text{Total amount}}{\text{number of parts}}


=((2)/(3))/(6)


=(2)/(18)


=(1)/(9)\text{ gallon}
