Answer:

36/45 and 35/45

Explanation:

5 and 9's least common denominator is 45 and to get to that you need to multiply both top and bottom of how to get to 45. How I got to 45 the easiest way is to keep multiplying both numbers until the reach the same product. In this case for 4/5, you multiply it by 9 for top and bottom. And for 7/9, it would be multiplying by 5 for top and bottom which will get you both of the answers. Hopefully this answers your question.
