Answer:

1 11/30

Explanation:

In order to add them up together, their denominators (in this case, 5 and 7) must be the same.

5 x 7 = 30

now that we figured out the common factor, we have to multiply the nominator as well to make it equal.

3 x 7 = 21

4 x 5 = 20

so that makes it 21/30 + 20/30. Now just simply add the nominators.

21/30 + 20/30 = 41/30.

Simplify it and the answer will be 1 11/30
