n+30/5

Explanation:

Simplify n/5

n/5+6

Rewrite the whole as an equivalent fraction

2.1 Add an integer to a fraction

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using 5 as the denominator: 6= 6/1=6×5/5

Equivalent fraction: the fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as everything.

2.2 sum of the two equivalent fractions add two equivalent fractions that now have a common denominator

Combine the numerators, place the sum or difference over the common denominator, and then reduce to the lowest terms of possible:

n+6×5/5=n+30/5
