p+1/3p is the same thing 1+1/3 just with units, so do that first.

@xLogic What's 1+1/3 = ?

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

Think of 1 as a fraction so \[\frac{ 1 }{ 1 }+\frac{ 1 }{ 3 } =?\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2/3?

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

I don't know how you got that, but it seems you're weak on fractions, before you go to this problem, please review how to do fractions.
