(5)/(a)+(3)/(4) - addition of fractions

Solution for the given fractions

• 5/a + 3/4 = ?
• The common denominator of the two fractions is: 4*a
• 5/a = (4*5)/(4*a) = 20/(4*a)
• 3/4 = (3*a)/(4*a) = (3*a)/(4*a)
• Fractions adjusted to a common denominator
• 5/a + 3/4 = 20/(4*a) + (3*a)/(4*a)
• 20/(4*a) + (3*a)/(4*a) = (3*a+20)/(4*a)
• (3*a+20)/(4*a) = (3*a+20)/(4*a)

Solution for the given fractions

$ \frac{5}{a }+\frac{ 3}{4 }=? $

The common denominator of the two fractions is: 4*a

$ \frac{5}{a }= \frac{(4*5)}{(4*a)} =\frac{ 20}{(4*a)} $

$ \frac{3}{4 }= \frac{(3*a)}{(4*a)} = \frac{(3*a)}{(4*a)} $

Fractions adjusted to a common denominator

$ \frac{5}{a }+\frac{ 3}{4 }=\frac{ 20}{(4*a)} + \frac{(3*a)}{(4*a)} $

$ \frac{20}{(4*a)} + \frac{(3*a)}{(4*a)} = \frac{(3*a+20)}{(4*a)} $

$ \frac{(3*a+20)}{(4*a)} = \frac{(3*a+20)}{(4*a)} $
