To find how many twelfths are equivalent to \( \frac{2}{3} \), we need to make the denominators equal to 12.

1. Starting with \( \frac{2}{3} \), we need to figure out what to multiply 3 by to get 12.
   \[
   3 \times 4 = 12
   \]

2. Since we multiplied the denominator by 4, we must also multiply the numerator by 4 to keep the fraction equivalent.
   \[
   2 \times 4 = 8
   \]

Therefore, \( \frac{2}{3} \) is equivalent to \( \frac{8}{12} \). 

The answer to the question is that both the numerator and denominator should be multiplied by 4.
