Question

Add and write the sum in lowest term.

$\frac{7}{5}+\frac{11}{15}$

Answer 1

According to the question,

⇒ $\frac{7}{5}+\frac{11}{15}$

LCM of 5 and 15 is "$15$"

$$\begin{gathered} \Rightarrow \frac{7\times 3}{5\times 3}+\frac{11}{15} \\ \Rightarrow \frac{21}{15}+\frac{11}{15} \\ \Rightarrow \frac{21+11}{15} \\ \Rightarrow \frac{32}{15} \end{gathered}$$

Convert improper fraction to mixed fraction:

⇒ $15232-30----02$

⇒ $\frac{32}{15}=2\frac{2}{15}$

Hence, the sum of $\frac{7}{5}+\frac{11}{15}$ is $2\frac{2}{15}.$
