Solve the Fraction Addition: 4/11 + 5/11 Step by Step

Solve the following exercise:

$\frac{4}{11}+\frac{5}{11}=\text{?}$

To solve the problem of adding the fractions $\frac{4}{11} + \frac{5}{11}$, we follow these steps:

• Step 1: Identify that both fractions have the same denominator of 11.
• Step 2: Since the denominators are the same, we can add their numerators directly:
  $4 + 5 = 9$.
• Step 3: Keep the common denominator, which remains as 11.

Now we combine these results to find the sum of the fractions:

$\frac{4}{11} + \frac{5}{11} = \frac{9}{11}$

The solution to the problem is $\frac{9}{11}$, which matches choice 3 in the provided options.
