Please help!!!! I literally don’t know what I’m doing

Answer 1

5 + m^3 n^2

----------------------

m^2 n^2

Explanation:

To add fractions, we need to get a common denominator:

The common denominator is m^2 n^2.

Multiply the second term by m^2n/ m^2n

m/n * m^2n / m^2 n = m^3n / m^2n^2

Now we can add the two terms

5 m^3 n^2

------ + ---------------------------

m^2 n^2 m^2 n^2

5 + m^3 n^2

----------------------

m^2 n^2
