The third person did 1/15 of the project.

Step-by-step explanation:

First man did = 3/5 of the project

Second man did = 1/3 of the project

Let,

y be the part done by third person.

Therefore,

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

Solving for y;

[tex]y=1-\frac{3}{5}-\frac{1}{3}\\[/tex]

Taking L.C.M;

[tex]y=\frac{15-9-5}{15}\\y=\frac{1}{15}[/tex]

The third person did 1/15 of the project.
