Answer:

understand what the fraction means

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, you need to <em>understand what 2/3 means</em>. It means 1 whole has been divided into 3 equal parts, and you're concerned with 2 of those parts.

In the number line in the first attachment, the space between 0 and 1 has been divided into 3 equal parts. The decimal value (rounded) is shown at each tick mark. The point marked "2/3" is located at the second of those divisions, counting from zero.

The same fraction is located on the same number line in the second attachment. That number line is marked with divisions at intervals of 1/10, so there are 10 of them between 0 and 1. The value 2/3 is represented by the point that is (2/3)(10) = 6 2/3 of those intervals, so is between 0.6 and 0.7 on the number line.

If the number line were divided into 12ths, then the fraction 2/3 would be located at the 8th tick mark, counting from 0. (2/3)(12) = 8 That is shown in the third attachment.
