Jessie read 1/3 of a book in the morning, and she read some more at night. By the end of the day, she still had 1/5 of the book left to read. How much of the book did Jessie read at night?

Answer:

7/15

Explanation:

I converted 1/3 into 5/15

Then I converted 1/5 into 3/15

I added 5/15 and 3/15 and got 8/15

Then I subtracted 15/15-8/15=7/15.
