You asked:

Evaluate the expression: \(\frac{120}{4} + \frac{10}{5}\)

MathBot Answer:

\[ \frac{120}{4} + \frac{10}{5} = 32 \]


The sum can be computed by rewriting each term over a common denominator, where the least common denominator of \(\frac{120}{4}\) and \(\frac{10}{5}\) is \(20\). \[ \begin{aligned} \frac{120}{4} + \frac{10}{5} &= \frac{120 \cdot 5}{4 \cdot 5} + \frac{10 \cdot 4}{5 \cdot 4} \\ &= \frac{600 + 40}{20} \\ &= \frac{640}{20} \\&= 32 \end{aligned} \]
