The answer is B

To figure this out, all you have to do is put 2/3 into a ratio with 6 so it looks like 2/3:6 now get rid of the fraction by multiplying both sides by 3/2 to make the left side 1 and the right side 4.

The answr is A because 6 divided by 2/3 is 9, and △ABC is smaller than △ DEF. Sorry if i'm wrong.
