It would be written like so:

25/4 + 2

Though I'm not sure how you share 25 stamps among 4 friends equally without having to rip 1 of the 25 stamps into quarters.

Answer:

The expression becomes:
(25)/(5)+2

Explanation:

Rashad had 25 stamps. He shared them equally among himself and 4 friends.

Means he divided among 5 people.

so, each friend got =
(25)/(5) stamps.

Then Rashad found 2 more stamps in his pocket.

The expression now becomes :
(25)/(5)+2

=
5+2 = 7
