EXPLANATION :

From the problem, we have the fraction :

[tex]\frac{2}{6}[/tex]

We need to find the common factor between the numerator and the denominator.

6 = 3 x 2 x 1

The common factor is 2 x 1 which is equal to 2.

Divide the numerator and the denominator by 2 :

[tex]\frac{2\div2}{6\div2}=\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
