To multiply \( 6 \times \frac{2}{9} \), you can first consider the whole number 6 as a fraction. This can be written as \( \frac{6}{1} \).
Now, multiply the numerators together and the denominators together:
\[ \frac{6 \times 2}{1 \times 9} = \frac{12}{9} \]
After multiplying, the numerator is 12 and the denominator is 9.
