Answer

The simplified form of the given expression = $\frac{3 - x}{3}, x \ne 0$

Work Step by Step

$\frac{\frac{1}{x} -\frac{1}{3}}{\frac{1}{x}}$ = $\frac{\frac{3 - x}{3x} }{\frac{1}{x}}$ = $\frac{3 - x}{3x}\times$$x$ = $\frac{3 - x}{3}$ The simplified form of the given expression = $\frac{3 - x}{3}, x \ne 0$
