Answer:
3

Explanation:
Assume that the number of [tex] \frac{1}{9} [/tex] needed to make [tex] \frac{1}{3} [/tex] is x

Now, we would need to translate the givens into an equation and then solve for x.
The number of [tex] \frac{1}{9} [/tex] multiplied by x would give us [tex] \frac{1}{3} [/tex]

This means that:
[tex] \frac{1}{9} [/tex] * x = [tex] \frac{1}{3} [/tex]

[tex] \frac{x}{9} [/tex] = [tex] \frac{1}{3}[/tex]

3x = 9

x = [tex] \frac{9}{3} [/tex]

x = 3

Hope this helps :)

Answer: The correct answer is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of ninths needed be taken as 'x'

We need to find the number of ninths needed to make;

[tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex],

The equation for this becomes:

[tex]\frac{1}{9}\times x=\frac{1}{3}\\\\x=\frac{9}{3}\\\\x=3[/tex]

Hence, we need 3 times ninths to get us the fraction of [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex].
