false..

if it was asking for 1/3 of the original price, it would be true
but 1/3 off....means u are paying 2/3...so u would multiply the original price by 2, then divide by 3...or u would take the original price and subtract 1/3 * the original price

Answer:

False.

Step-by-step explanation:

If an item is [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] off thats how much you are not paying from the original price of the item, to calculate how much are you paying after the disccount you can do 2 things.

The first one is multiplying the price by [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] and then substracting that from the original price, that will give you the final price.

Or you can simply multiply the original price by 2/3 which is what you have to pay for the item in terms of fractions, and you´d get the final price.
