you have to make the denominators (bottom numbers) the same via multiplication, it's best to do it to the first number they meet at. that would be fifteen (15)
5×3=15
3×5=15
you then have to multiply the numerators by the respective numbers.
2×3=6
1×5=5
you then subtract the numerators normally
6-5=1
slap back on the denominator
1/15
there's your answer.
(the number you multiply them by isn't the other denominator, it just happens to be the denominators for this equation)
