$\frac{17}{5}$ $17/5$

Explanation:

When you write 3 in terms of fifths, you get $\frac{15}{5}$ $15/5$ , because $1 = \frac{5}{5}$ $1=5/5$ , and you multiply it by 3 to obtain $\frac{15}{5}$ $15/5$ because $3 \times 5 = 15$ $3 times 5= 15$ . When this answer of $\frac{15}{5}$ $15/5$ is added to the additional $\frac{2}{5}$ $2/5$ , you get a total of $\frac{17}{5}$ $17/5$ .
