    1/3 as a decimal is 0.333

    2/3 as a decimal is 0.6666

    The numerator would need to be less than 17, so find the numbers when divided by 17 are greater than 0.333 and less than 0.6666.

    5/17 = 0.294

    6/17 = 0.353

    The lowest whole number would be 6.

    11/17 = 0.647

    12/17 = 0.705

    The highest whole number would be 11.

    So you would have 6/17, 7/17, 8/17, 9/17, 10/17, 11/17 for a total of 6 numbers.
