Answer 4

1/9 is closer to zero then 1
2/13 is also closer to zero then 1
so 4 and 1/9 is closer to 4 or 5?
and is is 2 and 2/13 closer to 2 or 3?

Answer 5

4 and 2?

Answer 6

yes so 4+2=?

Answer 7

9/2=4.5
so if we have had:
\[4\frac{\text{ a number between 4.5 and 9 including 4.5 and 9 }}{9} \approx 5\]
13/2=6.5
so if we have had:
\[2\frac{ \text{ a number between 6.5 and 13 including 6.5 and 13 }}{13} \approx 3\]
for example:
\[4 \frac{5}{9} \approx 5 \\ 2\frac{12}{13} \approx 3 \\ 4 \frac{4}{9} \approx 4 \\ 2\frac{5}{13} \approx 2\]
