Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] of 12 = [tex]\frac{12}{3}[/tex] = 4
let the number required be n , then
[tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] n = 4 ( multiply both sides by 3 to clear the fraction
2n = 12 ( divide both sides by 2 )
n = 6
Thus
[tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] of 12 = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] of 6
