So first off you need common denominators. So what is eaiser for me, I just multiply 5*7. Which equals 35. Now you need to do that to the top. So you take 7*3 and 5*3. So then you would have 21/35+15/35. So then the answer is 36/35 simplified. 1   1/35

3/5 + 3/7
Multiply the denominator until they have the same common denominator.
21/35 + 15/35
Add the numerators but NOT the denominators
Final Answer: 36/35 or 1 1/35
