What divided by 1/3 equals 7/6?

Here we will show you how to calculate "what" in this sentence: "What divided by 1/3 equals 7/6?" We start by making this word problem into an algebraic equation where "what" is the variable "x".

x / (1/3) = (7/6)

To solve this equation, we want x alone on the left side of the equation so we start by multiplying (1/3) on both sides like this:

(x / (1/3)) • 1/3 = (7/6) • (1/3)

(x / (1/3)) • 1/3 leaves x and (7/6) • (1/3) is 7/18 which means we end up with this x = 7/18. Therefore, the answer to "What divided by 1/3 equals 7/6?" is as follows:

7/18

It is always good to double-check your math to make sure you did it right. When we entered 7/18 for x in this equation x / (1/3) = (7/6), we get the following true equation which means our math is correct.

(7/18) / (1/3) = (7/6)
