Answer:

it will always be 1

Step-by-step explanation:

lets make an equation

pick a number : x

add 2 : x+2

multiply by 3 : (x+2)*3

subtract 3 : (x+2)*3-3

divide by 3 : ((x+2)*3-3)/3

if you simplify, you will get 1

step by step simplification

(x+2)*3 = 3x+6

3x+6-3=3x+3

(3x+3)/3 = x+1

x+1-x=1
