7/9 plus 4/9 is closest to 1,2, or 3?

So to add just add the top numbest together

7+4=11

11/9=1 and 2/9

1 and 2/9

if 2/9 is >1/2 then it is closer to 2

if 2/9 is <1/2 then it is closer to 1

2/9 times 2/2=4/18

1/2 times 9/9=9/18

4/18<9/18

4<9

so therfor it is less than 1/2 so that makes is closest to 1

7/9 + 4/9 = 7+4/9 = 11/9 = 1 and 2/9

When we sum up fractions with the same denominator, we leave the same denominator and the numerators sum up.

We receive 1 and 2/9 and it is closest to 2
