How many sixths does it take to make the same amount of 1/3

(1)/(3) can be multiplied by 2 (just multiply the top number and the bottom number separately).


(1)/(3) x2 =
(2)/(6).

Since you multiplied both the top and bottom number, 1/3 and 2/6 are the exact same amount!

It takes 2/6 (two sixths) to make 1/3.
