If you would like to know if Miles is going to spend more or fewer hours bicycling this week than last week, you can calculate this using the following steps:

2/3 as many hours:
2/3 * x hours

Because 2/3 is less than 3/3 = 1, this means that Miles is going to spend fewer hours bicycling this week than last week.
