She will stretch all the parts of the body that
(2)/(3) is a multiple of

She will not strech her neck,
(1)/(2) multiplied will not give
(2)/(3)

She will however stretch her legs, this will be the second time this hour:

(1)/(3)+(1)/(3) =(2)/(3)


She will also stretch her legs, this will be the forth time this hour:

(1)/(6)*4 =(4)/(6)=(2)/(3)
