Tony drank 1/3 of a cup of water in the morning.

Tony drank 3/5 of a cup of water in the afternoon.

You need to find out how much water did he drink it all so we need to add 3/5 with 1/3.

3/5 + 1/3 =

[tex]\frac{1 x 5}{3 x 5} + \frac{3 x 3}{5 x 3} =[/tex]

= 5/15 + 9/15

= [tex]\frac{5 + 9}{15}[/tex]

The answer is 14/15

hope this helps!
