PLS HELP:
9-3 divided by 1/3 + 1=?
correct
Are you saying the problem looks like (9-3) / (1/3) +1? If so, the answer is 19. If you mean (9-3) / (1/3 +1), then you get (6)/(4/3) = 4.5. Whatever, good luck.
or, 9 - 3/(1/3) + 1 = 9 - 9 + 1 = 1
To solve this equation, you need to follow the correct order of operations: parentheses, exponents, multiplication and division (from left to right), and addition and subtraction (from left to right). This is also known as the PEMDAS rule.
Let's break down the given equation step by step:
1. Start by evaluating the expression inside the parentheses: 9 - 3 = 6.
The equation now becomes: 6 divided by 1/3 + 1 = ?
2. Next, we perform the division. To divide by a fraction, we multiply by its reciprocal. The reciprocal of 1/3 is 3/1 (or simply 3). So, we have: 6 * 3 + 1 = ?
3. Perform the multiplication: 6 * 3 = 18.
The equation simplifies to: 18 + 1 = ?
4. Finally, perform the addition: 18 + 1 = 19.
Therefore, the solution to the equation 9 - 3 divided by 1/3 + 1 is 19.
