Answer: 4/5

Explanation:


7/15 + 1/3

(7/15 x 1/1) (1/3 x 5/5) = ?


7/15 + 5/15 = ?


7+5/15 = 12/15


12/15 both sides divided by 3 = 4/5


therefore
7/15 + 1/3 = 4/5

\huge\text{Hey there!}


\mathsf{(7)/(15) + (1)/(3)}


\mathsf{= (7)/(15) + (1*5)/(3*5)}


\mathsf{= (7)/(15) + (5)/(15)}


\mathsf{= (7 + 5)/(15 - 0)}


\mathsf{= (12)/(15)}


\mathsf{= (12/3)/(15/ 3)}


\mathsf{= (4)/(5)}


\huge\text{Therefore, your answer should be: \boxed{\mathsf{(4)/(5)}}}\huge\checkmark
