What is 1/3 of 36 i need to bc i am confused on home work

THE ANSWER IS 12So you need 1/3 of 36 which means that you need to divide 36 by 3 since you need 1 of the 3 parts that 36 is divided into. 36/3=12 so 12 is 1/3 of 36
To understand this, even more, think of 36 as pizza slices. You have three friends and one friend has to get 1/3 to divide it evenly.
36= 12 + 12 + 12 so each friend gets 12
12= 1/3 of 36
24=2/3 of 36
36=3/3 of 36

Iwould say 48 bc the line of x is the line of 6 so 6×6=48
