\frac{5\times 2}{2\left(x+2\right)}-\frac{5\left(x+2\right)}{2\left(x+2\right)}
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Least common multiple of x+2 and 2 is 2\left(x+2\right). Multiply \frac{5}{x+2} times \frac{2}{2}. Multiply \frac{5}{2} times \frac{x+2}{x+2}.
\frac{5\times 2-5\left(x+2\right)}{2\left(x+2\right)}
Since \frac{5\times 2}{2\left(x+2\right)} and \frac{5\left(x+2\right)}{2\left(x+2\right)} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.
