Jenny is holding a fraction tile labeled 1/3. How many 1/3- fraction tiles are needed to equal the fraction tile labeled 1

Respuesta :

calculista

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the number of 1/3 fraction tiles

we know that

The linear equation that represent this problem is equal to

[tex]\frac{1}{3}x=1[/tex]

Solve for x

Multiply by 3 both sides to remove the fraction

[tex]\frac{1}{3}x(3)=1(3)[/tex]

[tex]x=3[/tex]

Verify

[tex]\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{3}=1[/tex] -----> is correct

Three times 1/3 is equal 1
