Pg 355 - Q21
 

This probability question asks us to look for the least common denominator.  1/3 + 1/5 + X = 1.  The least common denominator here is 15.  Applying the least common denominator, we see that 3/15 + 5/15 = 8/15.  Subtracting 8/15 from one yields the answer of 7/15. C is the correct answer.
