Answer:

the answer is $12

Explanation:

to get the answer you would multiply 18 by 2/3 or you can divide by 3 then multiply what you get from dividing by 3 by 2.

version 1: 18(2/3) = ?

12

version 2: 18/3=?

6 you want to multiply by to because that is 1/3 of the original price

6(2) = 12

Either way you get the same answer. Hopes this helps
