To find the sum of 2 1/5 and 1 3/5, we need to add the whole numbers and the fractions separately.
First, add the whole numbers:

Next, add the fractions:
1/5 + 3/5 = (1 + 3)/5 = 4/5
Finally, combine the whole numbers and the fractions:
3 + 4/5 = 3 Start Fraction 4 over 5 End Fraction
Therefore, the sum of 2 1/5 and 1 3/5 is 3 4/5.
