The problem asks to find out how many sixths are equivalent to one-third using visual models.

In the first model, one-third (\(\frac{1}{3}\)) is represented by one shaded section out of three equal sections.

In the second model, two-sixths (\(\frac{2}{6}\)) is represented by two shaded sections out of six equal sections.

Since \(\frac{2}{6}\) has the same shaded area as \(\frac{1}{3}\), it shows that these fractions are equivalent. To complete the sentence, we need to find how many times more parts there are in \(\frac{2}{6}\) compared to \(\frac{1}{3}\).

### Solution:
Since each third is divided into two sixths, \(\frac{2}{6}\) has **2 times** as many equal parts as \(\frac{1}{3}\).

So, the answer is:
\[
\text{\(\frac{2}{6}\) has 2 times as many equal parts as \(\frac{1}{3}\).}
\]
