74 3/5 + 19 2/3
74+19= 93
for 3/5+2/3 we need a common denominator which in this case would be 15 (the product of the two already existing denominators)
3x3=9 (the 3s are first numerator and the second denominator) so the first fraction is 9/15
5x2=10 (the first denominator and the second numerator) so the second fraction would be 10/15
9+10=19 (the numerators in both fractions) so it's 19/15 which we convert to a mixed numeral which is 1 4/15
93+1 4/15=94 4/15

hope this helps :)

Ok 74
(3)/(5)
So 19
(2)/(3)


= 373/5 + 59/3

= ((373 × 3) + (59 × 5)) / (5 × 3)

= (1119 + 295) / 15

= 1414/15

= 1414/15

= 94 4/15
