Answer 1

Raise the fraction to the highest term 1/5 to 15ths is
`(3)/(15)`

Solution:

Given that we have to raise the fraction to the highest term 1/5 to 15ths

To raise a fraction to higher term, first you divide the larger denominator by them smaller denominator

Then multiply both the numerator and denominator by the same number, as a result that will give a new denominator.

Let "x" be the numerator of new fraction

`(1)/(5) = (x)/(15)`

To make the denominator 5 to 15 we have to multiply both numerator and denominator by 3

`(1 * 3)/(5 * 3) = (3)/(15)`
