Question

What is 2/3 as many as 18

Answer 1

12

Explanation:

Multiply 2/3 and 18. Since it a whole number, convert it to a fraction by putting it over a denominator of 1. When multiplying fractions, calculate numerator times numerator, then denominator times denominator. Multiply 2/3 x 18/1 to get 36/3.

Simplify the resulting fraction as needed by dividing it by the common denominator. The common denominator of 36 and 3 is 3. Diving 36 and 3 by 3 gives you a fraction of 12/1, which is the same as 12. Thus, two-thirds of 18 is 12.

`(2)/(3)*(18)/(1)`

`=(36)/(3)`

`=(12)/(1)`

`=12`
