Question

I dont know the answer to this question do you 3 x blank = 1

Answer 1

Value of the blank (We assumed it as
`x` while solving) :-

`\boxed {\tt x = \cfrac{1}{3}}`

Actual answer :-

`\boxed{\tt \: 3 * \boxed{\cfrac{1}{3}} = 1}`

Explanation:

Given equation :-

`\sf 3 * ? = 1`

(Note: I wrote "?" instead of "blank".)

We need to find the value of the blank on this equation.

Solution:-

To solve Further let's us assume that the value of the blank be
`x`.

So, blank =
`x`

The equation will be . . .

`\sf \longmapsto3 * x = 1`

Let's solve out this equation !

`\sf \implies3 * x = 1`

Multiply 3 and x on the LHS :-

`\sf \implies3 x = 1`

Hence the new equation would be 3
`x`=1.

Now, Divide both sides by 3 :-

`\sf \implies \: \cfrac{3x}{3} = \cfrac{1}{3}`

Simplify this equation :-

Cancel 3 and 3 on the LHS, Leave
`x` . 1/3 can't be cancelled.

`\sf \implies \: \cfrac{ \cancel3}{ \cancel3x} = \cfrac{1}{3}`

`\sf \implies1x = \cfrac{1}{3}`

As we know that x = 1x So,

`\sf \implies \: x = \cfrac{1}{3}`

This equation can't be simplified more.

Hence, the value of
`x` would be 1/3.

Now,Put the value of
`x` (1/3) on the given equation:-

`\sf \implies \: 3 * \: \cfrac{1}{3} \: = 1`

We are done !

Answer 2

y =
`\frac13`

Explanation:

let the blank be y

3 * y = 1

3y = 1

Now, divide both sides by 3:

3y ÷ 3 = 1 ÷ 3

y = 1/3
