Answer 2

Answer:
`(4)/(15)` of the pizza was left

Explanation:

lets first get the denominators the same..

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

`(2)/(5) = (6)/(15)`

To find the total pizza eaten we add these two fractions

`(5)/(15) +(6)/(15) =(11)/(15)`

we can think of
`(15)/(15)` as 1 pizza because it simplifies to 1

`(15)/(15) -(11)/(15) =(4)/(15)`

Therefore,
`(4)/(15)` of the pizza was left
