Add the following fractions: 2/15 + 1/3
To add these fractions, we need to find a common denominator.
The least common multiple of 15 and 3 is 15.
To convert 2/15 to have a denominator of 15, we multiply the numerator and denominator by 3:
(2/15) * (3/3) = 6/45
Now, the two fractions have a common denominator, so we can add them:
6/45 + 1/3 = (6 + 15)/45 = 21/45
However, we can simplify this fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 3:
(21/3) / (45/3) = 7/15
So, the sum of 2/15 and 1/3 is 7/15.
