For adding, subtracting, and comparing fractions, it is suitable to adjust both fractions to a common (equal, identical) denominator. The common denominator you can calculate as the least common multiple of both denominators - LCM(3, 5) = 15. In practice, it is enough to find the common denominator (not necessarily the lowest) by multiplying the denominators: 3 × 5 = 15. In the next intermediate step, the fraction result cannot be further simplified by canceling.
In words - two thirds plus three fifths = nineteen fifteenths.
