Solve 6/x+5+2

$$\frac { 6 } { x + 5 } + 2$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{2\left(x+8\right)}{x+5}$$

Short Solution Steps

To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Multiply 2 times \frac{x+5}{x+5}.

$$\frac{6}{x+5}+\frac{2\left(x+5\right)}{x+5}$$

Since \frac{6}{x+5} and \frac{2\left(x+5\right)}{x+5} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{6+2\left(x+5\right)}{x+5}$$

Do the multiplications in 6+2\left(x+5\right).

$$\frac{6+2x+10}{x+5}$$

Combine like terms in 6+2x+10.

$$\frac{16+2x}{x+5}$$

Factor

$$\frac{2\left(x+8\right)}{x+5}$$
