Answer:

1/9 of the cookies will be in each oven.

Explanation:

Take the fraction 2/3 and divide by 6. This is the same as 2/3 × 1/6

2/3 × 1/6 = 2/18, which can be simplified to 1/9.

To check your answer, you can take 1/9 and multiply by 6 ovens. This gives you 6/9 (1/9 × 6/1), which can then be simplified to 2/3.

Hope this helps!
