You're welcome.
To add the given mixed numbers, you need to convert them into improper fractions and find a common denominator. Here's how you can do that:
Step 1: Convert the mixed numbers into improper fractions.
4 2/9 can be converted into an improper fraction as (4 × 9 + 2) / 9 = 38/9.
2 7/9 can be converted into an improper fraction as (2 × 9 + 7) / 9 = 25/9.
Step 2: Find a common denominator. Since both fractions have the denominator 9, you don't need to find a new common denominator.
Now, you can add the two fractions:
(38/9) + (25/9) = (38 + 25) / 9 = 63/9.
Step 3: Simplify the fraction, if possible. In this case, the numerator (63) and denominator (9) have a common factor of 9. So, you can divide both by 9 to simplify the fraction:
63/9 ÷ 9/9 = 7/1 = 7.
Therefore, 4 2/9 + 2 7/9 = 7.
