The answer is 12. I got it by dividing 2/3 into 8. I used keep change flip. First I made 8 a fraction by putting one as it's denominator. Then I changed division to multiplication. After that, I flipped the fraction from 2/3 to 3/2. Then I multiplied across. My answer was 24/2. I simplified and got my final answer of 12.
