Answer: 17/18
In words, this is seventeen eighteenths
==========================================
Work Shown:
4/9 + 9/18
8/18 + 9/18 ... see note below
(8+9)/18
17/18
----------------
note: To go from 4/9 to 8/18, we multiply top and bottom by 2. So that's why 4/9 = 8/18.
The diagram below shows a visual representation of why 4/9 = 8/18.
In the top row, I've drawn out 9 rectangles of the same size. Then I've shaded 4 of the 9 rectangles to represent the fraction 4/9. In the bottom row, I've cut each of those 9 rectangles into two smaller equal pieces, so we have 9*2 = 18 rectangles now. Note how the shaded regions are the same size, so this shows 4 green regions doubles to 2*4 = 8 yellow regions; therefore 4/9 is the same as 8/18.

Complete Question
An arts academy requires there to be 6 teachers for every 132 students and 4 tutors for every 44 students. How many students does the academy have per teacher? Per tutor? How many tutors does the academy need if it has 132 students?
Answer:
a)How many students does the academy have per teacher?
22 students per teacher
b) Per tutor?
11 students per tutor
c) How many tutors does the academy need if it has 132 students?
12 tutors
Step-by-step explanation:
a)How many students does the academy have per teacher?
6 teachers = 132 students
1 teacher = x
6 × x = 132 × 1
x = 132 × 1/6
x = 22 students
Hence, we have 22 students per tutor
b) Per tutor?
4 tutors = 44 students
1 tutor = x students
Cross Multiply
4 × x = 1 × 44
x = 44/4
x = 11 students
Hence, we have 11 students per tutor
c) How many tutors does the academy need if it has 132 students?
44 students = 4 tutors
132 students = x tutors
Cross Multiply
44 × x = 132 × 4
44x = 132 × 4
x = 132 × 4/44
x = 12 tutors
The academy needs 12 tutors if they have 132 students.
