Question

What number is 5 more than 1/3 of 18

Answer 1

Answer:11

Explanation:

18*1/3+5=11

Answer 2

11

Explanation:

To find the number that is 5 more than
`(1)/(3)` of 18, we can start by evaluating what
`(1)/(3)` is:

`(1)/(3)` of 18

⇒
`(1)/(3) * 18`

To multiply a whole number by a fraction, we can convert the whole number into a fraction by giving it a denominator of 1:

⇒
`(1)/(3) * (18)/(1)`

⇒
`(18)/(3)` [This is the same as 18 ÷ 3]

⇒
`\bf 6`

Now that we have the value of
`(1)/(3)` of 18, we can simply add to it to find the number that is 5 more than
`(1)/(3)` of 18:

`((1)/(3) * 18) + 5`

⇒
`6 + 5`

⇒
`\bf 11`

∴ The number we are looking for is 11.
