$\"2%2F3+%2B+7%2F15\"$
\n" ); document.write( "First you need to find a common denominator, say 15.
\n" ); document.write( "Then, you must convert the left term so it has 15 as a denominator.
\n" ); document.write( "Do this by multiplying the left term by 5/5:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%282%2F3+%2A+5%2F5%29+%2B+7%2F15\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%2810%2F15%29+%2B+7%2F15\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Now we can combine fractions:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%2810%2B7%29%2F15\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"17%2F15\"$ \r
