Hey!

\large\boxed{The~plant~grew~2(1)/(2)~feet!}

------------------------------------------------

Steps To Solve:

~Find common denominators

6/7 = 54/63

2/9 = 14/63

~Turn into improper fractions

1 54/63 = 117/63

4 14/63 = 266/63

~Subtract.

266/63 - 117/63 = 149/63

~Turn into mixed number

149/63 = 2 23/63

~Round

2 23/63 ≈ 2 1/2
