    1/18

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let x represent the total birthday money

    And y the amount of each video games

    Given;

    You spent 1/3 of your birthday money on 6 video games

    6y = (1/3) x ... 1

    Since each of the six video games cost the same.

    The fraction of your birthday money that each video game cost is;

    from equation 1, making y the subject of formula;

    6y = (1/3) x

    divide both sides by 6;

    y = (1/3) x * 1/6 = (1/18) x

    Therefore, each video game cost 1/18 of the total birthday money.
