Answer: 5 4/15
Explanation:
1 3/5 + 3 2/3 = 8/5 + 11/3
Find the common denominator (5 and 3) = 15
So 8/5 equals to 24/15 because if 5 x 3 = 15 , 8 must also multiply by 3.
11/3 equals to 55/15 because if 3 x 5 = 15 , 11 must also multiply by 5.
Thus 24/15 + 55/15 = 79/15
This is an improper fraction, so converting to mixed number:
79/15 = 5 4/15 because 5 x 15 + 4 = 79
