Answer:

97 / 60 is what 2/3 + 3/4 + 1/5 comes

They also come to 1 37/60

Explanation:

1 37/60 = 97/60 Does it?

Result = 2/3 + 3/4 + 1/5

The common denominator is 3 * 4 * 5 = 60, so that much is true.

2/3 = 40/60

3/4 = 45/60

1/5 = 12 / 60

When you add these three together, the numerator is 40 + 45 + 12 = 97

So the answer is correct.
