Answer:

1 4/15

Explanation:

first find a common denominator the common denominator would be 15 3 * 5 is 15 so you multiply 2 by 5 which is 10 so that would be 10/15 then five times 3 is 15 so you do 3 * 3 week equals 9 so then you have a 9/15 and you add which would be 19 / 15 then you subtract 15 so you would have 1 and 4/15
