Add the following fractions: 3/7 + 1/5 (1 point)

Answer 1

To add these fractions, you need to find a common denominator. The common denominator is 35 because it is a multiple of both 7 and 5.

Next, you need to rewrite each fraction with the common denominator:

3/7 = 15/35 (multiplying both the numerator and denominator by 5)
1/5 = 7/35 (multiplying both the numerator and denominator by 7)

Now, you can add the fractions:

15/35 + 7/35 = 22/35.

So, 3/7 + 1/5 = 22/35.
