Answer:

Option 1 is correct that is
(2x+5)/(4)

Explanation:

We have been given an expression


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

We need to find its simplified form

The first thing to solve these kind of fractions is to take the LCM which is 4 here


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

After simplification we get


(2x+5)/(4)

Above expression is the simplified form of the given expression after that we can not solve it

Hence, option 1 is correct
