Solve 2/3+1/3+5/9=

$$\frac { 2 } { 3 } + \frac { 1 } { 3 } + \frac { 5 } { 9 } =$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{14}{9}\approx 1.555555556$$

Solution Steps

Since \frac{2}{3} and \frac{1}{3} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{2+1}{3}+\frac{5}{9}$$

Add 2 and 1 to get 3.

$$\frac{3}{3}+\frac{5}{9}$$

Divide 3 by 3 to get 1.

$$1+\frac{5}{9}$$

Convert 1 to fraction \frac{9}{9}.

$$\frac{9}{9}+\frac{5}{9}$$

Since \frac{9}{9} and \frac{5}{9} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{9+5}{9}$$

Add 9 and 5 to get 14.

$$\frac{14}{9}$$

Factor

$$\frac{2 \cdot 7}{3 ^ {2}} = 1\frac{5}{9} = 1.5555555555555556$$
