Answer 1

Answer:

increase, 100%.

Explanation:

2/3 is 1/3 + 1/3. if you think of 1/3 as your starting point, you want to know how much you have changed, but IN TERMS OF 1/3. one way to do this is to subtract your starting value (1/3) from your new value, and then divide.

$\frac{2}{3}-\frac{1}{3} = \frac{1}{3}$

$\frac{1}{3}$÷$\frac{1}{3}$

which is really

$\frac{1}{3}$×$\frac{3}{1}$

which simplifies to 1.
