Answer:

9 - 3 ÷ (1/3) + 1 = 1

Explanation:

Given problem,

→ 9 - 3 ÷ (1/3) + 1

Let's solve the problem,

→ 9 - 3 ÷ (1/3) + 1

→ 9 - (3 × 3) + 1

→ 9 - 9 + 1

→ 9 - 8 = 1

Thus, the answer is 1.

Solve it considering correct order of operations:

  • 9 - 3 ÷ 1/3 + 1 = Division first
  • 9 - 3 × 3 + 1 = Multiplication first
  • 9 - 9 + 1 = Subtraction is same priority with addition
  • 0 + 1 = Addition
