To convert the mixed number 2 2/3 to an equivalent fraction, we first need to find the improper fraction:

2 2/3 = 8/3

To divide this fraction by 2, we can multiply the numerator by 1/2:

(8/3) * (1/2) = 8/6

We can simplify this fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor, which is 2:

(8/6) ÷ 2/2 = (4/3) ÷ 1 = 4/3

Therefore, the quotient that is equivalent to the mixed number 2 2/3 is 4/3.
