>mfw I failed math class but still am better in math than graduated Americans
bad question. you can interpret it in 2 ways:
1.) 1/3 is written as a fraction, because it is supposed to save parentheses:
9-3/(1/3)+1=1
2.) denotation of division is inconsistent without any meaning:
9-3/1/3+1=9
>>707186106
>>707186168
Lol 3 divided by 1/3 is 1?
To the people who thinks it's 9.. why even post if you know that you've never been good at math?
8+1=9
>>707186322
m8 u just said that 3÷1/3 = 3*1/3
they are obviously different signs
3÷1/3=3*3/1 because although you can divide by fractions, an easy way of doing this is to multiply by the reciprocal.

You're dividing a whole by a decibel. I.e lets have 2÷1/2. That would be 4. Because 2 ÷ 0.5 = 4
Now multiplying a 2 × 1/2 would be 1 because you're finding the half of 2.

9-3/(1/3)+1 exponents first
(1/3) = 0.3 repeating
9-3/0.3r+1 then division
3 / 0.3r = 9
Anyone who thinks 3 / 0.3r < 3 should try multiplying is instead of dividing.

to multiply a whole number by a fraction is the same thing as multiplying by the whole number by thedenominator, so 3/(1/3) is the same as 3*3, because you cant divide by a fraction, just like how you cant minus by a negative number. I asked my 15yo brother this and he got it correct, so youre either really fucking stupid or you shouldnt be on this website
>>707187200
That wouldn't be the equation.
9-(3÷(1÷3))+1
Why the fuck would 3 be divided by one then by 3? You're not dividing 3 by 1. You're dividing 3 by 1/3 which if its in decimal form than its in its own parenthesis.

so you do 3*(3/1) = 3*3 = 9.
ok so we have 9-9 + 1.
its 1.
>>707187451
The answer is one. Explaining that 3÷1/3 isn't 1 because the 3 is the third to begin with meaning that 3=1/3 which would make 9 the resulting value of 3÷1/3

>>707188014
U are a fucktard
>>707188118
the calculator even shows that what you put in was actually (3/1)/3, which is not 3 divided by 1/3. The real equation should be 3/(1/3), so youre wrong
>>707186706
You're missing an implicit parenthesis around (1/3)
so O(rder of)O(perations) dictates that it is actually three divided by one third, which has been solved before in the thread, equaling nine.
Nine minus nine is zero, plus one equals one total.
>>707186796
there is no second way to interpret the problem given. If you're interpreting it in any other manner it only shows that you don't fully comprehend mathematical notation.

If you have 3÷1/3 then if you follow the actual fraction being 1÷3 then that would be its own equation.
Thus it would be (3÷(1÷3)) because if you do 3÷1÷3 you changed the whole equation because you eliminated the 1/3 all together.

This this this, there are no parentheses in the pic and the division sign is written the same way. That's why so many retards are getting easily tricked because they think the fraction is it's own entity just because it looks different

>>707189586

>>707189473
Actuallly, it is. 1/3 is written as a fraction so its solidified into 1/3. Not 1÷3 as part of the left to right. Just 1/3.
That gets its own parenthesis regardless because its written as a fraction. So if we had 3 ÷ 1/3 or verbal three devided by one third then you have
3÷(1/3) because you're keeping that third as a seperate part so it always stays as a third.
>>707189630
how many times does .333333 go into 3?
>>707189630
Because it is its own entity.
It's easy:
1/3= 0.3333
so, 3/0.3333 (calculator) equals 9
so:
9 - (9) + 1
equals 1
other answers are for retards.
>>707189586
>>707189630
brackets are their own separate entity in this equation. you can not say that one third is the same as 1 divided by three because it isnt. it is .333333333333333333 there is a video in this thread that proves you wrong

3 ÷ 3 is 1.

If 3 ÷ 1/3 = 1, then 3 ÷ .333333333 = 1
Is this where you stand?
as a math student, i want to kill myself everytime i see the answers in such threads.
the answer is 1 faggots.
over and out.
>>707188929
But the notation indicates that 1/3 is a fraction and should be grouped as such. If it were to be interpreted the way you're saying, there's no reason to put both the obelus and solidus
It's 1. Those who say otherwise are b8 or retards.
PEMDAS
No parentheses
No exponents
No multiplication
Division: (3/(1/3)) How many times does 1/3 go into 1? 3, so to get three you need 3 3 times, which means 9, leaving the equation as 9-9+1=x
Addition/subtraction: (9-9=0) 0+1=1
Even did the math for you retards.
It's 9. Just google it if you believe these fucktards trying to say it's 1.
1/3 goes into 3 3 times.

.333... goes into 3 exactly 9 times.
>>707191817
3.333 goes into 3 1 time does it now?
So lets do a lesson in math
To multiply fractions it goes as such
2 *(1/2) = 2 over 1 times 1 over 2. You multiply each line of the fraction of 2/1 and 1/2 leaving you with 2/2 equaling 1.
So 2*(1/2) =1
Dividing
2÷(1/2) which equals 2 over 1 divided by 1 over 2 so
(2/1) ÷ (1/2)
You flip the 1/2 to equal 2/1 then multiply numerators.
(2/1) x (2/1) resulting in 4/1 equaling 4. Now i see where the confusion lies in the / symbol because it is also a symbol of division but thats what a fraction is. Keeping / as a fraction symbol
10 × (1/2) would be 10/2 so 5
10÷ (1/2) would be 20/1 so 20
>>707191038

>put into decimal form for easier equating
I'm sure you would've gotten the answer right if you didn't do that, but nice try. The mistake you made was in the 2nd step; 3 / .3r =/= 9.9r, it's simply 9
>>707193441
Its easier to keep in fraction form.
>>707193124
.3 is just an approximation for retards who can't do math with fractions. You'll never get an academic equation that uses repeating decimals because it almost always fucks up your final answer and there's no room for error in practical mathematics.
The answer is 1
>>707193582
yes, unless we used a better base suited for this question (e.g. base x, where x is a multiple of 3)
>>707193765
Agreed but it would be simpler to convert the 3 into a fraction form and then do division of fractions to leave with whole numbers.
>>707193976
imo it makes no difference since I can already see that they're reciprocals in the given form

According to the rules. Multiplication and division are the same rank, so its left to right and same with addition and subtraction. Going strictly left to right the answer is 1. Going strictly left to right on pemdas is -1.

9. Only dumb 'muricans would think otherwise.
>>707195149
in pemdas, not sure about bodmas but I'm 90% sure it's the same thing, the MD and AS are both steps. rather than multiplication => division => addition => subtraction, it's multiplication AND division => addition AND subtraction.

>>707195469
Here's your (You), faggot
>>707194955
yes, i did. Subtraction came first.
Multiplication and Division are given equal weight, so you do whichever comes first, left to right. The same is true for addition and subtraction: whichever comes first, left to right.
Since the subtraction came first, it gets solved first
>>707195843
PEMDAS
1. Parenthesis
2. Exponents
3. Multiplication and division
4. Addition and subtraction.
Easiest way to break it down by levels. Multiplying isn't higher than division but its equal to it on the hierarchy. This guy has it right.
>>707196159
BODMAS
1. Brackets
2. Orders
3. Multiply or divide (left to right )
4. Add or subtract (left to right)
No difference compared to PEMDAS.

3/(1/3) = (3*3)/(3*1) = 9/1 = 9 = ur a fucktard
>>707198340
3 / 1/3 = 9
>>707198340
Technically thats 3. (3*3)=9/(3*1) or 3
So 9/3. See where you were going with it though.
>>707186322
3 divided by 1/3 is 3 divided by .3333 not 3 divided by one divided by 3
In no math class would you ever
EVER
have two different symbols for division. This problem is made to confuse. This issue is level of math completed by each person.
If you are getting 9, then chances are you are still in high school and/or are retarded. HOWEVER, in a manner of speaking, you are right.
If you are getting 1, chances are you've done some advanced math (calculas, diff eq,) and are assuming that the 1/3 gets precedence, which in a manner of speaking is wrong.
Bottom line is: this formula was written by a complete genius preying on self hating retards.
>>707199329
Precedence? What are you even talking about. 3 divided by a third is 9. If you use basic math and fractions dividing, you are left with (using / as a fraction symbol and not division ) 3÷1/3. You flip 1/3 to 3/1 and multiply 3 × 3/1 leaving 9/1. By seperating 3÷1/3 (still keeping / as a fraction symbol and not division) and getting 1 would be the same as 3×1/3 because you multiply the numerators, being 3 and 1 since 3=3/1 and the denominators which would be 1x3 leaving 3/3 or 1. By doing 3÷1÷3, you completely changed the problem from 3÷1/3 ( / being a fraction) to 3x1/3.
>>707199329
>a complete genius
a kid in high school and/or a retard could shit this out.
>>707186322
You flip the second fraction to equal 3 over 1 then multiply.
its 4 morons
>>707185042
Am I the only one who got 19?
>>707199961
precedence, as in thinking (1/3) is someone more important to divide first rather than the 3 ÷.
A FRACTION IS JUST A DIVISION SYMBOL.
(÷) AND (/) mean the exact same thing. Seriously, look it up. Therefor, you could rewrite the problem as 3/1/3, or 3 ÷1 ÷ 3. But it's common to give precedence to the 1/3, since that is how normal people write math problems. There SHOULD be parenthesis somewhere, but it's INTENTIONALLY left out to confuse you faggots.
There are two answers. Stop arguing and learn how to write math.

There is no symbol there to confuse. It has 1 over 3 and not using a / symbol. If you have 1 over 3 in a fraction, then thats the number. Not once was a slash used in the problem presented but a fraction was. You have a whole number dividing by a fraction. So in order to divide a whole by a fraction, either 1. Turn both into fractions or 2. Use the reciprocal.
Method 1
1
3÷ -
3
So
3. 3
- * -
1. 1. Or 9
Method 2. Reciprocal
1
-
3 = 3 so you have 3 x 3.
Now if the problem said 3÷1/3 exactly, then you would be right but the one shown doesn't have that.
>>707185042
>1
9 - (3/ (1/3)) + 1
easy
>>707201546
There is no parenthesis
>>707201724
they're implied
>>707201724
Doesn't change the value.
Divide fractions and you will see
>>707201724
learn basic math rules, you dipshit
there's no "+" in front of the 9 either ... doesn't mean it's negative either
>>707185042
Scary how fucking terrible you all are at math.
for all of you retards out there:
3 divided by 1/3 is the same as 3*3.
so it's 9 - 9 + 1 = 1
also
>your math skills < Google math skills
>>707201724
People who keep saying this are idiots. The problem is solved the same they just show how its done

>>707201180
>Now if the problem said 3÷1/3 exactly, then you would be right but the one shown doesn't have that.
are you high? Look back at the OP. It says 3÷1/3... Are you implying that a (/) is different than the bar used in a fraction? Because it's not.
Perhaps I'm not explaining it right to you. WRITE THE ISSUE DOWN, without adding parenthesis:
THREE DIVIDED BY ONE DIVIDED BY THREE.
That is the information given. If you are saying THREE DIVIDED BY ONE THIRD, then you are giving unwarranted precedence to the (1/3). Now remember, (1/3) is NO DIFFERENT than 1 ÷ 3. They are the exact same. the exact same.
The exact same. So, for you to get your answer you want, YOU MUST HAVE PARENTHESIS, otherwise you are giving order of operations rules where there are none.
You do realize that the obelus (the ÷) is dropped in elementary school, right? That is what is confusing you, here.

9 - 3 / 1/3 + 1 Apply PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication And Division, Addition and Subtraction)
9 - (9) + 1 (3 divided by 1/3 equals 9)
0 + 1
> 1

>learn basic math rules
The fact that a ÷ is used in the same formula as a fraction throws basic math rules out the window.
Would you say "use basic cooking skills" if the recipe called for Play-do?
it's 1
>>707202171
the 1/3 is a fraction. It can be writen down as 0.3333... and so on.. but the fraction is more accurate.
So the problem reads 9 - 3/0.3333... +1 = 1

>>707202171
There is no order. You have 3 divided by one third. So if one third is the number than it is (1/3) because one third is the value you are dividing 3 by. You're not dividing 3 by 1 by 3. You changed the whole problem by doing so because now the new formula is 3*1/3. 3/1=3*1.
>>707202348
Both are part of basic math even in the same formula.
