\frac{3\left(a-5\right)}{12}+\frac{4\left(4+a\right)}{12}
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Least common multiple of 4 and 3 is 12. Multiply \frac{a-5}{4} times \frac{3}{3}. Multiply \frac{4+a}{3} times \frac{4}{4}.
\frac{3\left(a-5\right)+4\left(4+a\right)}{12}
Since \frac{3\left(a-5\right)}{12} and \frac{4\left(4+a\right)}{12} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.
\frac{3a-15+16+4a}{12}
Do the multiplications in 3\left(a-5\right)+4\left(4+a\right).
\frac{7a+1}{12}
Combine like terms in 3a-15+16+4a.
