Step-by-step explanation:

18*1/3+5=11

Answer 2

Answer:

11

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number that is 5 more than $\frac{1}{3}$ of 18, we can start by evaluating what $\frac{1}{3}$  is:

$\frac{1}{3}$  of 18

⇒ $\frac{1}{3} \times 18$

To multiply a whole number by a fraction, we can convert the whole number into a fraction by giving it a denominator of 1:

⇒ $\frac{1}{3} \times \frac{18}{1}$

⇒ $\frac{18}{3}$   [This is the same as 18 ÷ 3]

⇒ $\bf 6$

Now that we have the value of $\frac{1}{3}$ of 18, we can simply add to it to find the number that is 5 more than $\frac{1}{3}$ of 18:

$(\frac{1}{3} \times 18) + 5$

⇒ $6 + 5$

⇒ $\bf 11$

∴ The number we are looking for is 11.
