Answer:
(3/4)*(x) = 2/3

Explanation:
If you make an equation (3/4)*(x) = 2/3 then the x would represent how many 3/4ths will be equal to 2/3rds since multiplying by that number x represents is like adding up how many of the 3/4ths you need to equal what’s on the other side of the equals sign - so from there you just solve the equation for x..
