5/9 + 1/3 + tuna = 1

tuna =   1  - 5/9 - 1/3.           LCM = 9

tuna = 9/9 - 5/9 - 3/9 = (9 - 5 - 3)/9 = 1/9

Fraction of tuna = 1/9

Let all the puffs be x.   Recall there are 18 tuna

(1/9)x = 18

x/9 = 18

x = 9*18

x = 162

There are 162 puffs in all.

Let n be the total number of puffs. Now we can write:
n=\frac{5}{9}n+\frac{1}{3}n+18
Adding the fractional value of n, we get:
n=\frac{5+3}{9}n+18
Simplifying and rearranging gives us:
n-\frac{8}{9}n=18
Therefore we can simplify to get:
\frac{1}{9}n=18
and finally
n=18\times9=?
The fraction of the puff that are tuna is found from:
\frac{18}{18\times9}=\frac{1}{9}

Subtract 9 from each side

9-9-x/5=3-9

-x/5 = -6

Multiply each side by -5

-x/5 *-5 = -6*-5

x = 30
