No because 2 and 4 go into 8 3 goes into 9
1 can go into 9 and 5. 1 and 2 can go into 2 and 4.
22/9 = 2 4/9.
Expressed as a mixed number, 9/4 is equal to 2 1/4 or two and a quarter.9/4 = 2 and 1/4
3/2 4* 9/4 = 9
The next number in the series 2-4-3-9-4 is 16. 2 squared is 4, 3 squared is 9, 4 squared is 16
They can go into 8*4*9 = 288. That is not the smallest such number, but that was not the question.
9/4 is equal to the mixed number 2 1/4
4+2x=9 -4 -4 2x=9 2x/2 9/2 x=4 1/2
9/4 = 2 1/4
36
9/2 = 4 and 1/2
