Answer:


(2)/(9)

Explanation:


((1+1)/(2+1) )/(3) =
((2)/(3) )/(3)

This can be written


(2)/(3)÷3

Which can be written


(2)/(3)÷
(3)/(1) There is a couple of ways to solve this, but the way that makes the most sense is to get a common denominator which is 6 and write two equivalent fractions.


(2)/(3) x
(2)/(2) =
(4)/(6) (
(2)/(2) is another name for 1. So I am using it to make an equivalent fractions.


(3)/(1) x
(6)/(6) =
(18)/(6)


(4)/(6) ÷
(18)/(6) =
((4)/(18) )/((6)/(6) ) =
((4)/(18) )/(1) =
(4)/(18)


(4)/(18) ÷
(2)/(2) =
(2)/(9)
