Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] × 12 can also be written as [tex]\frac{2 * 12 }{3}[/tex] because the 12 is multiplying the numerator of the fraction.

12 can also be written as [tex]\frac{12}{1}[/tex].

When we solve, this is what is happening:

[tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{12}{1}[/tex]

The 12 will be multiplying the 2, while the 1 will be multiplying the 3. Because 3 times 1 is 3, we don't show the 1. So, that can leave us with 2 being multiplied by 12 in the numerator.
