10/n+5/8+6/n

Put everything in the same terms and then combine. You can multiply both 10/n and 6/n by 1/8 and the 5/8 by 1/n.

Multiply top and bottom of each by 8, and for the middle term top and bottom by n

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Then you can go ahead and add the numerators together

OpenStudy (aum):

\[ \frac{10}{n} + \frac 58 + \frac 6n \\ \text{ } \\ \text{LCM is 8n} \\ \frac{10}{n} + \frac 58 + \frac 6n = \frac{8*10+5*n+6*8}{8n} = \frac{80+5n+48}{8n} = \frac{5n+128}{8n} \]
