Answer:

There is 7/15 left in the bag

Step-by-step explanation:

So, you need to find a common denominator between 3 and 5 which is 15

multiply the numerator and the denominator by 3 in 1/5. Then, multiply the numerator and the denominator by 5 in 1/3.

1/3*5=5/15

1/5*3=3/15

Add them together.

5/15+3/15=8/15

Lastly, subtract 15/15 by 8/15

15/15-8/15=7/15

How can equivalent
fenix001 [56]
Because, well, without them how are you able to add and subtract fractions :D
It is according to the laws of mathematics that you cannot add or subtract fractions that have different denominators to each other. So you need to make your fractions having the same denominator so that they are able to be added or subtracted (hence the equivalent fractions - making the denominators the same are making the fractions equivalent)
