Question

(ill fan anyone who can answer this)
Which phrase represents the algebraic expression three over x plus five?

five divided by a number, increased by three

five greater than a number divided into three

the sum of three and a number divided by five

five more than the quotient of a number and three

Answer 1

The original expression is a little ambiguous, it could mean:
\[\frac{ 3 }{ x+5 } or \frac{ 3 }{ x } + 5\]Which means the answer could be the second choice or the fourth choice

Answer 2

o.o that's seems 50/50

Answer 3

The second and fourth options seem equivalent to me. They both describe this:
\[\frac{ 3 }{ x } + 5\]I would go with the second choice. It's more specific, and it's accurate

Answer 4

thats what I went for
