Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x -----> the number of 1/3 fraction tiles
we know that
The linear equation that represent this problem is equal to
[tex]\frac{1}{3}x=1[/tex]
Solve for x
Multiply by 3 both sides to remove the fraction
[tex]\frac{1}{3}x(3)=1(3)[/tex]
[tex]x=3[/tex]
Verify
[tex]\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{3}=1[/tex] -----> is correct
Three times 1/3 is equal 1
