Solve 4/3+1/5*3/1

$$\frac{ 4 }{ 3 } + \frac{ 1 }{ 5 } \times \frac{ 3 }{ 1 }$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{29}{15}\approx 1.933333333$$

Solution Steps

Anything divided by one gives itself.

$$\frac{4}{3}+\frac{1}{5}\times 3$$

Multiply \frac{1}{5} and 3 to get \frac{3}{5}.

$$\frac{4}{3}+\frac{3}{5}$$

Least common multiple of 3 and 5 is 15. Convert \frac{4}{3} and \frac{3}{5} to fractions with denominator 15.

$$\frac{20}{15}+\frac{9}{15}$$

Since \frac{20}{15} and \frac{9}{15} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{20+9}{15}$$

Add 20 and 9 to get 29.

$$\frac{29}{15}$$

Factor

$$\frac{29}{3 \cdot 5} = 1\frac{14}{15} = 1.9333333333333333$$
