    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)
