2/3 times what equals 1

The answer is 1 1/2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the answer by converting 2/3 to a decimal. Then divide 1 by that decimal:

1 /.666666 = (approximately) 1.5

Check by multiplying:

1.5 *.6666666 = (approximately) 1

Now that I know that, do not use decimals.

1 1/2 * 2/3 =

3/2 * 2/3 =

6 / 6 = 1

I should have just multiplied by the reciprocal! : -)
