Solution Steps

Divide 2 by 2 to get 1.

$$\frac{2}{6}=\frac{1}{\frac{6}{2}}\text{ and }\frac{\frac{2}{2}}{\frac{6}{2}}=\frac{1}{3}$$

Divide 2 by 2 to get 1.

$$\frac{2}{6}=\frac{1}{\frac{6}{2}}\text{ and }\frac{1}{\frac{6}{2}}=\frac{1}{3}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{2}{6} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.

$$\frac{1}{3}=\frac{1}{\frac{6}{2}}\text{ and }\frac{1}{\frac{6}{2}}=\frac{1}{3}$$

Divide 1 by \frac{6}{2} by multiplying 1 by the reciprocal of \frac{6}{2}.

$$\frac{1}{3}=\frac{2}{6}\text{ and }\frac{1}{\frac{6}{2}}=\frac{1}{3}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{2}{6} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.

$$\frac{1}{3}=\frac{1}{3}\text{ and }\frac{1}{\frac{6}{2}}=\frac{1}{3}$$

Compare \frac{1}{3} and \frac{1}{3}.

$$\text{true}\text{ and }\frac{1}{\frac{6}{2}}=\frac{1}{3}$$

Divide 1 by \frac{6}{2} by multiplying 1 by the reciprocal of \frac{6}{2}.

$$\text{true}\text{ and }\frac{2}{6}=\frac{1}{3}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{2}{6} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.

$$\text{true}\text{ and }\frac{1}{3}=\frac{1}{3}$$

Compare \frac{1}{3} and \frac{1}{3}.

$$\text{true}\text{ and }\text{true}$$

The conjunction of \text{true} and \text{true} is \text{true}.

$$\text{true}$$
