draw an area model or use fraction strips to solve the problem.
\\(\frac{3}{6} = \frac{?}{12}\\)
\\(\frac{3}{6} = \frac{\square}{12}\\)

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the denominator change

The denominator changes from 6 to 12. We find the multiplier: \(12\div6 = 2\).

Step2: Multiply numerator by the same multiplier

Multiply the numerator 3 by 2: \(3\times2 = 6\). So \(\frac{3}{6}=\frac{6}{12}\).

Answer:

6
