To add the fractions 4/15 and 1/3, you need to have a common denominator.
The least common multiple of 15 and 3 is 15. Therefore, you can rewrite both fractions with a denominator of 15:
4/15 + 1/3 = (4/15) + (5/15)
Now that they have the same denominator, you can add the numerators:
= (4 + 5) / 15
= 9/15
The fraction 9/15 can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 3:
