Question

the shape is cut into 6 equal parts. shade \\(\frac{2}{3}\\) of the shape.

Explanation:

Step1: Find number of parts to shade

To find how many parts to shade, multiply the total number of parts (6) by the fraction $\frac{2}{3}$. So, $6\times\frac{2}{3}$.

Step2: Calculate the result

Simplify $6\times\frac{2}{3}$. 6 divided by 3 is 2, and 2 times 2 is 4. So we need to shade 4 out of the 6 equal parts.

(Note: For the actual shading, you would shade 4 of the 6 slices of the circle. Since this is a text - based response, we describe the number of parts to shade.)

Answer:

Shade 4 out of the 6 equal parts of the circle.
