See above.




-----------------
Regarding the 2/6ths fraction can someone tell me if we change 6 to 1/6ths? Do they both have to be fractions to proceed? Can we convert both to decimals?
----------------
?
What?


{{{2/6=2/(2*3)=1/3}}}


You can convert to a decimal form if you like.

1.00000 divided by 3;
Really meant as 1.00000, with repeating 0 digits, divided by whole number 3.
You can do the long-division procedure on your own unless you want help on this.
Result is  0.33333333333 repeating the digit 3 without end.</PRE>
