A fraction can be expressed as the product of a whole number and a unit fraction....
So...

7 * 1/9

(1)/(9) + (1)/(9) + (1)/(9) + (1)/(9) + (1)/(9) + (1)/(9) + (1)/(9)

Start with a numerator of 1 and go up to 6.

1.
(1)/(9) + (6)/(9)
2.
(2)/(9) + (5)/(9)
3.
(3)/(9) + (4)/(9)
4.
(4)/(9) + (3)/(9)
5.
(5)/(9) + (2)/(9)
6.
(6)/(9) + (1)/(9)

Hope this helps!

Hey You!

7/9 = 1/9 + 1/9 + 1/9 + 1/9 + 1/9 + 1/9 + 1/9

7/9 = 1/9 + 6/9

7/9 = 4/9 + 3/9

7/9 = 5/9 + 2/9

That's it! =)
