Answer:

D.e

Step-by-step explanati

2 is equal to 2/1, so our new problem is 2/1 divided by 1/3 there is a thing called kcf ( keep change flip ) used in divison with fractions.

Keep 2/1 change division to multipication and flip 1/3 to 3/1 so now its 2/1 x 3/1 now multiply across 2x3=6 and 1x1 is 1. Now you have 6/1 which is equal to 6!!

Hope this helped you
