To find the sum of 2 1/5 and 1 3/5, we need to add the whole numbers and the fractions separately.

First, add the whole numbers:
2 + 1 = 3

Next, add the fractions:
1/5 + 3/5 = (1 + 3)/5 = 4/5

Finally, combine the whole numbers and the fractions:
3 + 4/5 = 3 Start Fraction 4 over 5 End Fraction

Therefore, the sum of 2 1/5 and 1 3/5 is 3 4/5.
