Answer:
22/15 or 1 7/15(mixed fraction)
Step-by-step explanation:
Adding fractions should have the SAME DENOMINATOR.
- since 4/5 and 2/3 have different denominators, we have to get the LCM of 5 and 3.
3= 3, 6, 9, 12, 15
5= 5, 10, 15
- since both of them have 15, then think of a number that can use to get 15 for the denominator then do the same to the numerator.
- 4/5 x 3/3= 12/15, do not get the lowest term because the denominator will change again
- 2/3 x 5/5= 10/15
- we have a new equation, it is 12/15 + 10/15
= [tex]\frac{22}{15}[/tex] or in mixed fraction [tex]1\frac{7}{15}\\[/tex]
