Answer:

if the denominators are not the same, then you have to use equivalent fractions which do have a common denominator. To do this, you need to find at least common multiple (LCM) of the two denominators. To add fractions with unlike denominators, rename the fractions with common denominator. Then add and simplify

Answer:

\frac{52}{45}  or  1\frac{7}{45}

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to add two fractions with different denominators, you will have to find its least common denominator (LCD):

The LCD of 9 and 5 is 45.

Next, we'll start with 5/9:

Divide 45 by 9, which results in 5. Then, multiply the numerator by 5:\frac{5}{9} = \frac{5*5}{45}  = \frac{25}{45}

The same goes with 3/5:

Divide 45 by the denominator, 5, then multiply 5 by the numerator 3:

\frac{3}{5} = \frac{9*3}{45}  = \frac{27}{45}

Now, we can finally add 25/45 and 27/45 since they have the same denominator. Doing so results in a sum of 52/45:

\frac{25}{45} + \frac{27}{45} = \frac{52}{45}

If you have to transform 52/45 into a proper fraction (which will result in a mixed fraction), then it will be 1\frac{7}{45}.
