Answer 2

Answer:

B) 7/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Fraction addition:

• If the denominators are not same, find the LCM of the denominators.

          LCM of 3 and 9 is 9.

• Now, find equivalent fractions with denominator as 9.

          $\sf \dfrac{1}{3}=\dfrac{1*3}{3*3}$

              $\sf =\dfrac{3}{9}$

• Now add.

      $\sf \dfrac{4}{9}+\dfrac{1}{3}=\dfrac{4}{9}+\dfrac{3}{9}$

                 $\sf =\dfrac{7}{9}$
