The correct option is: A)
(x)/(2)+(3)/(4)

Step-by-step explanation

The given expression is:
(2x+3)/(4)

If we split the above whole expression into two different fractions with a common denominator, then we will get......


(2x)/(4)+(3)/(4)

Now, we can reduce the first fraction by dividing both numerator and denominator by 2. So, the simplified expression will be......


(2x/ 2)/(4/ 2)+ (3)/(4)\\ \\ = (x)/(2)+(3)/(4)
