Find LCM of denominators: Find the least common multiple (LCM) of the denominators 5 and 3. The LCM is 15.
Make denominators the same: Make the denominators the same by multiplying the first fraction by 3 and the second fraction by 5. This gives us (3p4q4)/15+(40q)/15.
Simplify the expression: Simplify the expression by adding the numerators since the denominators are the same. The final simplified expression is (3p4q4+40q)/15.
