<span>the change in the amount of water in the pitcher is</span>5/8 cup
Hey there!
The answer is no because whenever you add or subtract fractions, you find the common denominator(the bottom of the fraction)
Corret way:
The common denominator is 15 (5*3)
Multiply numerator(top) and the denominator by 3
4/5*3*3= 12/15
Multiply numerator and the denominator by 5
1/3*5/5= 5/15
So the equation is now
12/15+5/15= 17/15 or 1 2/15
Hope this helps! :)
