Solve 9-3-1/3+1=

$$9 - 3 - \frac { 1 } { 3 } + 1 =$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{20}{3}\approx 6.666666667$$

Solution Steps

Subtract 3 from 9 to get 6.

$$6-\frac{1}{3}+1$$

Convert 6 to fraction \frac{18}{3}.

$$\frac{18}{3}-\frac{1}{3}+1$$

Since \frac{18}{3} and \frac{1}{3} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{18-1}{3}+1$$

Subtract 1 from 18 to get 17.

$$\frac{17}{3}+1$$

Convert 1 to fraction \frac{3}{3}.

$$\frac{17}{3}+\frac{3}{3}$$

Since \frac{17}{3} and \frac{3}{3} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{17+3}{3}$$

Add 17 and 3 to get 20.

$$\frac{20}{3}$$

Factor

$$\frac{2 ^ {2} \cdot 5}{3} = 6\frac{2}{3} = 6.666666666666667$$
