To add the fractions 3/7 + 1/5, follow these steps:
Step 1: Find a common denominator for both fractions.
The common denominator for 7 and 5 is 35.
Step 2: Convert both fractions to have the common denominator.
3/7 = (3 * 5) / (7 * 5) = 15/35
1/5 = (1 * 7) / (5 * 7) = 7/35
Step 3: Add the fractions together.
15/35 + 7/35 = 22/35
Therefore, the sum of 3/7 + 1/5 is 22/35.

To add fractions, you need to find a common denominator. The denominator is the bottom number of the fraction. In this case, the denominators are 7 and 5. To find a common denominator, you can multiply the two denominators together. In this case, the common denominator is 7 * 5 = 35.
Once you have the common denominator, you can add the numerators, which are the top numbers of the fractions. So, 3/7 + 1/5 is equal to (3 * 5 + 1 * 7) / 35 = 15/35 + 7/35 = 22/35.
Therefore, the sum of 3/7 + 1/5 is 22/35.
