Find the two missing fractions.

1/3, 2/12, x/x, x/x, 5/39

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

OK.....the numerators seem to go 1,2,3,4,5

The denominators are a little trickier.

What did we add to 3 to get 12 ??     ⇒ ⇒  ⇒   9

Then, if we added 9 to 12, we'd get 21.

See if you can finish this, now.........
