Answer:

[tex]1\frac{1}{9}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Rodrigo added [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]  and [tex]\frac{4}{9}[/tex]

The correct steps are:

1. Check for common denominators.

[tex]\frac{2}{3}=\frac{2\times3}{3\times3}=\frac{6}{9}[/tex] and [tex]\frac{4}{9}[/tex]

2. Write the sum

[tex]\frac{6}{9}+\frac{4}{9}[/tex]

3. Add the numerators.

[tex]\frac{6+4}{9} =\frac{10}{9}[/tex]

Write as mixed Number

[tex]1\frac{1}{9}[/tex]
