When a number \( x \) is divided by \( \frac{1}{3} \), you can express this as multiplying \( x \) by the reciprocal of \( \frac{1}{3} \), which is \( 3 \).
So the expression for the situation is:
\[
3x
\]
Thus, the correct answer is \( 3x \).
So the expression for the situation is:
\[
3x
\]
Thus, the correct answer is \( 3x \).
