Final answer:

The identity property states that any number multiplied by 1 is equal to the original number. This property holds true for any rational number.

Step-by-step explanation:

The identity property refers to the property that any number multiplied by 1 is equal to the original number. In the given problem, 2/3 multiplied by 1 is equal to 2/3, and 1 multiplied by 2/3 is also equal to 2/3. This property holds true for any rational number.

First of all, the identity property of multiplication (which is what this is I'm assuming) is that the number 1 multiplied by any other number is that number itself. (An example would be 2 multiplied by 1, which would be two) So in this problem, this rule applies too, since 2/3 multiplied by 1 would be 2/3!

Hope this helped :)
