\frac{5\left(x+8\right)}{20}+\frac{4\left(x-6\right)}{20}
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Least common multiple of 4 and 5 is 20. Multiply \frac{x+8}{4} times \frac{5}{5}. Multiply \frac{x-6}{5} times \frac{4}{4}.
\frac{5\left(x+8\right)+4\left(x-6\right)}{20}
Since \frac{5\left(x+8\right)}{20} and \frac{4\left(x-6\right)}{20} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.
\frac{5x+40+4x-24}{20}
Do the multiplications in 5\left(x+8\right)+4\left(x-6\right).
\frac{9x+16}{20}
Combine like terms in 5x+40+4x-24.
