how many 2/3 are in 1? This is confusing to me. Please help :)
well, there are 3 1/3's in 1, right?
So, since 2/3 is twice as big, there are half that many 2/3's, or 3/2
(3/2)(2/3) = 1
thank you so much! I understand now! :)
1 / (2/3) = 1 * (3/2) = 3/2 = 1 1/2
Ms. Sue, so there's 1 1/2 into 1? :)
There are 1 1/2 two-thirds in 1.
thank you Ms. Sue so much :)
You're welcome.
i dont understand
Sure, I'll be happy to help you with that! To find out how many 2/3 are in 1, you need to divide 1 by 2/3. Here's how you can do that:
We can convert the division problem into a multiplication problem by taking the reciprocal of the fraction 2/3. The reciprocal of a fraction is obtained by swapping the numerator and denominator. So, the reciprocal of 2/3 is 3/2.
Now, we can multiply 1 by 3/2:
1 × (3/2) = (1 × 3) / 2 = 3/2
So, there are 3/2 or 1.5 (decimal form) 2/3 in 1.
