There are infinitely many, but two more obvious choices might be:
#16/21" "# or#" "4/5#
Explanation:
There are infinitely many numbers between
The midpoint is:
#1/2(2/3+6/7) = 1/2(14/21+18/21) = 1/2(32/21) = 16/21#
Another, somewhat simpler fraction that lies between them is:
#(2+6)/(3+7) = 8/10 = 4/5#
