three squared minus two thirds


3^2-(2)/(3)

three square = 3 x 3 = 9


\begin{gathered} 3^2-(2)/(3)=9-(2)/(3) \\ 3^2-(2)/(3)=(9)/(1)-(2)/(3) \end{gathered}

Least common factor of 1 and 3 is 3


\begin{gathered} 3^2-(2)/(3)=(9)/(1)-(2)/(3) \\ 3^2-(2)/(3)=(27-2)/(3) \\ 3^2-(2)/(3)=(25)/(3) \end{gathered}

Three squared minus two third is twenty five by three.
