If we divide up the denominators into their smallest possible integer factors,

\displaystyle \begin{align}
45&=5\cdot 9=5\cdot 3\cdot 3\,, \\ 
75&=3\cdot 25=3\cdot 5\cdot 5\,, \\ 

\end{align}

the expression can be written as

\displaystyle \frac{2}{3\cdot 3\cdot 5}+\frac{1}{3\cdot 5\cdot 5}

and then we see that the denominators have \displaystyle 3\cdot 5 as a common factor. Therefore, if we multiply the top and bottom of the first fraction by 5 and the second by 3, the result is the lowest possible denominator

\displaystyle \begin{align}
\frac{2}{3\cdot 3\cdot 5}\cdot \frac{5}{5}+\frac{1}{3\cdot 5\cdot 5}\cdot
\frac{3}{3} &=\frac{2}{3\cdot 3\cdot 5\cdot 5}
   +\frac{3}{3\cdot 5\cdot 5\cdot 3}\\[10pt] 
 &= \frac{10}{225}+\frac{3}{225}\,\textrm{.}\\ 

\end{align}

The lowest common denominator is 225.
