\frac{5\left(2a+5b\right)}{15}-\frac{3\left(3a+6b\right)}{15}
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Least common multiple of 3 and 5 is 15. Multiply \frac{2a+5b}{3} times \frac{5}{5}. Multiply \frac{3a+6b}{5} times \frac{3}{3}.
\frac{5\left(2a+5b\right)-3\left(3a+6b\right)}{15}
Since \frac{5\left(2a+5b\right)}{15} and \frac{3\left(3a+6b\right)}{15} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.
\frac{10a+25b-9a-18b}{15}
Do the multiplications in 5\left(2a+5b\right)-3\left(3a+6b\right).
\frac{a+7b}{15}
Combine like terms in 10a+25b-9a-18b.
