I dont really know what a "new" like fraction is, but I assume your question to be asking for a fraction with denominator of 15 that is equal to these you've given. So, I'll help you with that.

So, to get a denominator of 15 from 2/3 we need to multiply top and bottom by some number, which will equal 15 on bottom, 3*5= 15 so, we do that to both top and bottom:
2 * 5        10
----  =   --
3 * 5        15

2/3 = 10/15

Now you just need to multiply top and bottom of 1/3 to get your second answer (since it has the same denominator).
