Rita swam 4/9 Kilometers to an island. Then she swam 2/9 kilometers to a boat.
How far did she swim in all?
Write your answer as a fraction in simplest form.
To find the total distance that Rita swam, we add the two distances together:
4/9 + 2/9 = 6/9
Now, we simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 3:
6 ÷ 3 = 2
9 ÷ 3 = 3
So, the total distance that Rita swam in all is 2/3 kilometers.
