To add 3 1/3 and 3 2/5, we first find a common denominator for 3 and 5, which is 15.
Converting 3 1/3 to an improper fraction, we get: 3 1/3 = 3 + 1/3 = 3(3/3) + 1/3 = 9/3 + 1/3 = 10/3
Converting 3 2/5 to an improper fraction, we get: 3 2/5 = 3 + 2/5 = 3(5/5) + 2/5 = 15/5 + 2/5 = 17/5
Adding the improper fractions, we have:
10/3 + 17/5 = (10 * 5 + 17 * 3) / (3 * 5) = (50 + 51) / 15 = 101/15
