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

Three.
5 1/3 minus 3 3/5 = 1 11/15
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.
