How many different ways can you write a fraction that has a numerator of 2 as a sum of fractions? Explain.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1/5 + 1/5 = 2/5

1/7 + 1/7 = 2/7

1/3 + 1/3 = 2/3

There are an infinite number of these fractions. They must be 1 and 1 in the numerator, and the denominator must be relatively prime  to 2. The examples I have picked are prime in the denominator, but the rule is not without many exceptions. For example

1/9 + 1/9 = 2/9

I don't think you can pick an even denominator because it will reduce when put with two.  Oh wait 2/18 + 2/18 = 4/18 = 2/9 But these could be reduced before adding. Still, it might count. It depends on who is marking the question.

What about an odd and even denominator?

1/9 + 1/18 = 3/18 = 1/6  There must be something that works, but I can't come up with an example.
