Answer:

4611/11515

Explanation:

1/(1×3)- 1 times 3 simply equals 3. so the answer would be 1/3.

1/(3×5)- 3 times 5 simply equals 15. so the answer would be 1/15.

1/(47×49)- 47 times 49 is 2303. so the answer would be 1/2303.

after all this you find the common deonomator. The common denominator is 34545. 34545 divided by 3 equals to 11515 so you muliplty that number by 1/3. 34545 divided by 15 equals to 2303 so you muliplty that number by 1/15.

34545 divided by 2303 equals to 15 so you multiply that number by 1/2303. After adding all that together you get 13833/34545. However after you simplify that number you get 4611/11515
