Answer:

12

Explanation:

If you are saying "eight divided by two thirds", it would be written as 8/2/3. 8 would be equal to 8/1 and the rule for dividing fractions is keep change flip, so keep 8/1, change the division to multiplication, and then flip 2/3 to 3/2.

You would get 8/1 * 3/2. 8 multiplied by 3 is 24, 2 multiplied by 1 is 2, therefore, you get 24/2, which simplifies to 12 if you divide by 2.
