Question

what is the meaning of 2 upon 3 RD

Answer 1

It’s simply 2 divided by 3. Now you can express that as a math equation for lower level students by saying 2/3=? which indicates the intent for the answer to be expressed in terms of a decimal.

However, in algebra 2/3 is often left expressed as a fraction. Maybe this will help: Imagine a pie cut into 3 pieces, but only 2 pieces are left. How do you express the amount of pie remaining from the original? 2/3, or 2 out of the 3 that made up a whole. Which is why 3/3=1. That is a whole. Also if I had 1/3 of one pie and 1/3 of an entirely different pie I could say together I have 2/3 of 1 pie.

You can have fractions bigger than 1, such as 5/3, but that is the same as 2/3 + 3/3 which we said is 1 right? So that could also be written as 1 and 2/3. What does just 2/3 mean? Its like saying 0 actual wholes and 2/3 of a whole. So you see the meaning of 2/3 is the same as any fraction, to indicate a part of a whole in addition to however many wholes you have. I hope this helps.
