Explanation:

Step1: Divide numerator by denominator

Divide 9 by 2. \( 9 \div 2 = 4 \) with a remainder of 1.

Step2: Form the mixed number

A mixed number is written as \( \text{Quotient} \frac{\text{Remainder}}{\text{Divisor}} \). So, using the quotient (4), remainder (1), and divisor (2), we get \( 4\frac{1}{2} \).

Answer:

\( 4\frac{1}{2} \) (For the boxes: the whole number is 4, the numerator of the fraction is 1, and the denominator is 2)
