(2)/(9)\approx0

this is because 9 is bigger than 2 almost 4 times, so the answer of the division must be close to 0.

now on the other side


(10)/(11)\approx1

10 is still smaller than 11 but the difference is small causing that the division be aroun 0.9 or 1.

when you add the estimates together you obtain


\begin{gathered} (2)/(9)+(10)/(11)=\text{?} \\ 0+1=1 \end{gathered}
