To write the given fraction ,as a sum or difference of any two fractions, we break the numerator into two parts. i.e. we write 3n + 5 as separately 3n and 5 to get two fractions. The denominator will come with both the parts of the separated numerator. Thsu, the new fraction will be 3n/7 + 5/7.


Write each fraction as a sum or difference. \(\frac{3n+5}{7}\): \(\frac{3n}{7} + \frac{5}{7}\)

Further explanation

The fraction is a number that represents a part of a whole. It consists of a numerator and a denominator. The numerator represents the number of equal parts of a whole, while the denominator is the total number of parts that make up whole. The lowest common denominator is the lowest common multiple of the denominators of a set of fractions. It simplifies adding, subtracting, and comparing fractions. The fraction is a number that represents a part of a whole.

Simplify: \(\frac{5}{7}\)

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

Adding a fraction to a whole
. Then rewrite the whole as a fraction using  7  as the denominator :

\(\frac{3n}{7}\)

Where equivalent fraction is the fraction, thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole
. And common denominator is the equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominator

Then we can add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator.  Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible

\(\frac{3n}{7} + \frac{5}{7}\)
