Question

What is the simplified form of the quantity of x plus 4, all over 5 + the quantity of x plus 5, all over 5?

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{2x+9}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$\frac{x+4}{5}+\frac{x+5}{5}$

we know that

When fractions of equal denominator are added, the numerator of the resulting fraction is equal to the sum of the numerators keeping the same denominator.

so

$\frac{x+4}{5}+\frac{x+5}{5}=\frac{(x+4)+(x+5)}{5}=\frac{2x+9}{5}$
