The expression that represents the amount that was not paid off is $\text { Debt amount that was not paid off }=\text { original amount of debt }- \frac{1}{3}\text { of original amount of debt }$

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, In 1995, the federal government paid off one-third of its debt. If the original amount of the debt was $ 4.920,000,000,000

We have to find which expression represents the amount that was not paid off

Now, we know that, amount that is not paid off = total debt – paid amount

$\text { Debt amount that is not paid off }=\text { original amount of debt }-\frac{1}{3}\text { of original amount of debt }$

$\begin{array}{l}{=\text { original amount of debt }\left(1-\frac{1}{3}\right)} \\\\ {=\text { original amount of debt } \times \frac{3-1}{3}} \\\\ {=4,920,000,000,000 \times \frac{2}{3}} \\\\ {=1,640,000,000,000 \times 2=3,280,000,000,000}\end{array}$

Hence the expression and value of debt amount that is not paid off is found
