anonymous · Answer

Start by making 1 and 1/3 an improper fraction

anonymous · Answer

Actually, you don't need to do that

anonymous · Answer

we need to get a common denominator, so what do you need to do to 3 to get it to 9?

anonymous · Answer

3 times what is 9?

anonymous · Answer

27

anonymous · Answer

Not three times nine, we want our finishing number to be 9, so 
3 x ? = 9?

anonymous · Answer

3

anonymous · Answer

right, so since we multiplied the denominator of 1/3 by 3, we also need to multiply the numerator, so what is 1 x 3?

anonymous · Answer

So we then have 3/9. Here is our equation now:

2/9 + ? = 1  2/9

anonymous · Answer

whoops sorry typo:

2/9 + ? = 1  3/9

anonymous · Answer

NOW we want to make 1  3/9 an improper fraction so:

1 x 9 = 9
3 + 9 = 12 
= 12/9

anonymous · Answer

Then we want to subtract:

12/9 - 2/9 = 10/9

anonymous · Answer

10/9 = 1  1/9

anonymous · Answer

So then we plug that into our equation and see if it works:

2/9 + 1  1/9 = 1  3/9

does this equation work?
