    ( _ / _ _ ) + ( _ / _ _ ) + ( _ / _ _ ) = 1

    Does anyone have a solution to this please??!

    Put the digits from one to nine (using each one once and only once) in the following equation so that the left-hand side is equal to 1.

    ( _ / _ _ ) + ( _ / _ _ ) + ( _ / _ _ ) = 1

    For example:

    (1/35) + (2/46) + (8/79) = 0.173

    Solution is:

    \frac{5}{{34}} + \frac{7}{{68}} + \frac{9}{{12}} = 1
