    You need to set it up as a fraction and make the fractions equal each other.

    2/3 (2 of their books for 3 of yours)

    x/18 (x amount of their books for 18 of yours)

    (2/3) = (x/18)

    multiply both sides by 18

    and you get

    36/3 which reduces to 12

    so your answer is 12
