How much is 1/3 of 18?

  1. 4.5

  2. 5

  3. 6

  4. 7

The correct answer is: 4.5

1/3 of 18 can be calculated by dividing 18 by 3, which gives us 6. Therefore, 1/3 of 18 is equal to 6. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not result in the value of 1/3 of 18 when divided by 3. Option B results in 3, option C results in 2, and option D results in 7/3 which is approximately 2.33. Only option A accurately represents 1/3 of 18.
