Sum of  

1/35

and

8/15

in Simplest Form

Given:   +
Since the denominators are not common (not the same), we need to find the Least Common Denominator (LCD), which is equivalent to the Least Common Multiple of 15 and 35:
LCD = LCM(15, 35) = 105
Express the given fractions as equivalent fractions with respect to the LCD (105):
=   and   = As a result,   + = +
Since the equivalent fractions have common denominators, we can add the numerators:
+ = = is in Simplest Form since the Greatest Common Factor of 59 and 105 equals 1, GCF(59, 105) = 1Therefore, the Sum of  

1/35

and

8/15

is equal to

59/105

in Simplest Form:  

1/35

+

8/15

=

59/105
