To solve for the unknown fraction that is equivalent to \( \frac{1}{3} \) with a denominator of 6, you can set up an equation:
\[ \frac{1}{3} = \frac{x}{6} \]
Now, solve for \( x \) by cross-multiplying:
\[ 1 \cdot 6 = 3 \cdot x \]
This simplifies to:
\[ 6 = 3x \]
Now, divide both sides by 3:
\[ x = \frac{6}{3} \]
\[ x = 2 \]
So,
\[ \frac{1}{3} = \frac{2}{6} \]
Therefore, \( \frac{1}{3} = \frac{2}{6} \).
1/3 = ?/6
