Choose a variable name for your number, for example "x". Write a suitable equation:
(1/3)x = 8
The idea is to isolate x. To get rid of 1/3 on the left side, multiply both sides by 3:
(1/3)3x = 24
1x = 24
x = 24
36
To find one-third of a number, you divide that number by 3. In this case, one-third of 48 would be 48 divided by 3, which equals 16. So, one-third of 48 is 16.
Three Eighths. 3/8, 3:8, three over eight.
If you start to count from one then the third odd number would be five. (1, 3 then 5)
one third of 36 is 12
Taking one-third of a number is the same as dividing it by three, so: 48/3 = 16. One-third of forty-eight is 16.
one third of the difference between ten and a number
1 eighth x 1 third = 1 twentyfourth (8x3 = 24)

Expressed as a mixed number in its simplest form, 25/3 is equal to 8 1/3 or eight and one third.
It is: 1/3 = one third
