In the morning, a car's tank contained 18⁄3 gallons of gasoline. Its owner used 5⁄3 gallons of gasoline to commute to work. How many gallons of gasoline were left in the tank?

Initial amount of fuel in the tank =
(18)/(3) gallons

Amount of fuel used =
(5)/(3)

Amount of fuel left =
(18)/(3)-(5)/(3)

=
(13)/(3) gallons are left
