\frac{1}{\left(x+1\right)\left(x+5\right)}+\frac{x+1}{\left(x+1\right)\left(x+5\right)}
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Least common multiple of \left(x+1\right)\left(x+5\right) and x+5 is \left(x+1\right)\left(x+5\right). Multiply \frac{1}{x+5} times \frac{x+1}{x+1}.
\frac{1+x+1}{\left(x+1\right)\left(x+5\right)}
Since \frac{1}{\left(x+1\right)\left(x+5\right)} and \frac{x+1}{\left(x+1\right)\left(x+5\right)} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.
\frac{2+x}{\left(x+1\right)\left(x+5\right)}
Combine like terms in 1+x+1.
\frac{2+x}{x^{2}+6x+5}
Expand \left(x+1\right)\left(x+5\right).
