What is the sum or different equivalent to the following expression?

OpenStudy (b.r):

OpenStudy (freckles):

I guess you are asking to rewrite (A+B)/C as A/C+B/C ?

OpenStudy (b.r):

a. 1 + 3/5 b. 1 + 3x/5 c. 1 - 3x/5 d. 25 - 15x

OpenStudy (freckles):

have you tried applying what I said?

OpenStudy (freckles):

\[\frac{A+B}{C}=\frac{A}{C}+\frac{B}{C} \] just in case the non-latex form was hard to read

OpenStudy (freckles):

example: \[\frac{5x+6}{3}=\frac{5x}{3}+\frac{6}{3}=\frac{5x}{3}+2\]

OpenStudy (freckles):

another example: \[\frac{5x-6}{3}=\frac{5x}{3}-\frac{6}{3}=\frac{5x}{3}-2\]

OpenStudy (b.r):

so 1- 3x/5

OpenStudy (freckles):

that is good \[\frac{5-3x}{5}=\frac{5}{5}-\frac{3x}{5}=1-\frac{3x}{5}\]
