Q. Simplify. Express your answer as a single fraction in simplest form. 25+5v
Find LCM: Find the least common multiple (LCM) of the denominators 2 and 5. The LCM is 10.
Make denominators same: Make the denominators the same by multiplying the first fraction by 5 and the second fraction by 2. This gives us (25)×(55)+(5v)×(22), which simplifies to 1025+102v.
Simplify expression: Simplify the expression by adding the numerators since the denominators are the same. The final simplified expression is (25+2v)/10.
