In explanation

Explanation:

Well you see how the denominators are not the same well thats a promblem and here is how we fix it.

we keep timesing them until there the same they can both go to 15 so 5 x 3=15 meaning were going to also have to times 3 by 3 since we timesed it denominator so 3 x 3 =9

so our 3 and 3/5 fraction is now 3 and 9/15

Next were going to have to get 1/3 denominator(3 to 15) so how can we get 3 to 15.

we can get 3 to 15 by timesing 3 by 5 so 3 x 5 =15

Now we have to do the same thing we did for the last fraction we will times the numerator also by 5 so what is 1 x 5?

1 x 5=5 so we have 5/15.

Now we are going to add 3 9/15 + 5/15

Lets add the numerators(9 and 5) 9 + 5=14 and there's our answer 3 holes and 14/15

It will look like this 3 14/15

Hope it helps have a awesome day:)
