multiply the whole number $3$ $3$ by the numerator $2$ $2$

$3 \cdot 2 = 6$ $3⋅2=6$ the numerator

$\frac{6}{3} = \frac{3}{3} + \frac{3}{3} = 2$ $6/3=3/3+3/3=2$

if you multiplied $3$ $3$ by $2$ $2$ the numerator and $3$ $3$ the denominator
you get an incorrect answer which is

$\frac{6}{9} = \frac{2}{3}$ $6/9=2/3$
