Step-by-step explanation:

Divide: 3 : 1/

3

= 3/

1

· 3/

1

= 3 · 3/

1 · 1

= 9/

1

= 9

Dividing two fractions is the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal value of the second fraction. The first sub-step is to find the reciprocal (reverse the numerator and denominator, reciprocal of 1/

3

is 3/

1

) of the second fraction. Next, multiply the two numerators. Then, multiply the two denominators.

In words - three divided by one third = nine.

Subtract: 9 - the result of step No. 1 = 9 - 9 = 0

Add: the result of step No. 2 + 1 = 0 + 1 = 1
