is this a riddle:
it depends on what you mean by "a third"
if its' a third of one then the answer is:
5-3.33333=1.66666666 or 1 and 2/3
if you mean "a third of a five"
then it's
5 - 3 - (5*.33333) = 0.3333333
or
5 - 3 and meaning (+) (5*.33333) = 3.66666
Great
1 and one half
1 and 8/9
seventeen twenty forths
5 1/3 minus 3 3/5 = 1 11/15
Three.
Twenty five minus one third is 24 and 2/3. You may have also meant twenty five minus one third of twenty five. That would be 16 and 2/3.
Four and one third, thirteen over three, or 4.33
One third is three ninths. So one ninth minus three ninths is minus two nights.
To subtract one third from five sixths, you first need a common denominator. The common denominator for 6 and 3 is 6. Five sixths remains the same, while one third can be converted to two sixths. Therefore, five sixths minus two sixths equals three sixths, which simplifies to one half.
One and three eigths

Five and one third.
