Hello loll6591!


\huge \boxed{\mathbb{QUESTION} \downarrow}

Perform the indicated operation and simplify the result. x/5+x/6


\large \boxed{\mathfrak{Answer \: with \: Explanation} \downarrow}


(x)/(5) + (x)/(6) \\

First, find the LCM of 5 & 6, which is 30.


\rightarrow (x)/(5) * (6)/(6) = (6x)/(30) \\ \\ \rightarrow(x)/(6) * (5)/(5) = (5x)/(30)

Now add 6x/30 with 5x/30.


(6x)/(30) + (5x)/(30) \\ = (6x + 5x)/(30) \\ = \large \boxed{\boxed{(11x)/(30) }}
