Question

how can i find \\(\frac{2}{3}\\) of 12? first, find \\(\frac{1}{3}\\) of 12. \\(12 \div 3 = \boxed{4}\\). then find \\(\frac{2}{3}\\) of 12. \\(2 \times 4 = \boxed{?}\\). so, \\(\frac{2}{3}\\) of 12 is \\(\boxed{?}\\).

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate 2×4

We know that 2 multiplied by 4 is a basic multiplication operation. So, \(2\times4 = 8\).

Step2: Determine \(\frac{2}{3}\) of 12

Since we found that \(\frac{1}{3}\) of 12 is 4, then \(\frac{2}{3}\) of 12 is 2 times \(\frac{1}{3}\) of 12. From Step 1, we got 2×4 = 8, so \(\frac{2}{3}\) of 12 is 8.

Answer:

For the first "?", the answer is 8. For the second "?", the answer is also 8. So, \(2\times4=\boxed{8}\), and \(\frac{2}{3}\) of 12 is \(\boxed{8}\).
