① | To add expressions with the same denominators, we add the numerators and write the result over the common denominator. $$ \begin{aligned} \frac{5}{10n^2+16n+6} + \frac{n-6}{10n^2+16n+6} & = \frac{5}{\color{blue}{10n^2+16n+6}} + \frac{n-6}{\color{blue}{10n^2+16n+6}} = \\[1ex] &=\frac{ 5 + \left( n-6 \right) }{ \color{blue}{ 10n^2+16n+6 }}= \frac{n-1}{10n^2+16n+6} \end{aligned} $$ |
