What fraction is greater than 1/9, is less than 1/3, and has a denominator of 18?
find the common denominators.

Answer 1

• 5/18

Explanation:

Let the numerator be x.

• 1/9 < x/ 18 < 1/3
• 2/18 < x / 18 < 6/18
• 2 < x < 6
• x = {3, 4, 5}

Fractions that satisfy the condition:

• 3/18, 4/18, 5/18

The first two can be simplified further:

• 3/18 = 1/6, 4/18 = 2/9

The answer is 5/18
