Q. Simplify. Express your answer as a single fraction in simplest form. 43y5+4y
Identify Denominator: Identify that both terms have the same denominator, which is 4. This means we can combine the numerators directly without finding a least common multiple (LCM).
Add Numerators: Add the numerators while keeping the common denominator. This gives us (3y5+y)/4.
Check Simplification: Check if the numerator can be simplified further. Since there are no common factors between 3y5 and y other than 1, the numerator is already in its simplest form.
Write Final Answer: Write down the final simplified expression. The final answer is (43y5+y).
