1) 2 1/3 is also equal to 7/3
4 1/5 is also equal to 21/5
you need to make the denominators the same so you have to find the lowest common multiple, which is 15 since both 5 and 3 can be times by to make 15
you need to also times the numerators by the number you're timesing the denominator by
7/3 x 5 = 35/15
21/5 x 3 = 63/15
now add those together
35/15 + 63/15 = 98/15
now just convert 98/15 back to a mixed fraction
98/15 = 6 8/15
the answer is..
