This one is easy. Since they all have the same denominator, just add across. The first step looks like this:


(x + 3 + 2)/(x + 3)

Now combine like terms:


(x + 5)/(x + 3)

Thats it..

Answer:

(x+5)/(x+3)

Explanation:

The L.C.M will be x+3

Therefore; dividing the L.C.M with the denominators and multiplying with the numerators we get;

x + 3 + 2 = x + 5

Thus; the sum will be;

= (x+5)/(x+3)
