Question

$$\frac{1}{3}-(-\frac{1}{3})$$

Evaluate

$\frac{2}{3}\approx 0.666666667$

Solution Steps

The opposite of $-\frac{1}{3}$ is $\frac{1}{3}$.

$$\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{3}$$

Since $\frac{1}{3}$ and $\frac{1}{3}$ have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{1+1}{3}$$

Add $1$ and $1$ to get $2$.

$$\frac{2}{3}$$
