You asked:

Evaluate the expression: \(10 + \frac{10}{2}\)

MathBot Answer:

\[ 10 + \frac{10}{2} = 15 \]


The sum can be computed by rewriting each term over a common denominator, where the least common denominator of \(\frac{10}{1}\) and \(\frac{10}{2}\) is \(2\). \[ \begin{aligned} 10 + \frac{10}{2} &= \frac{10 \cdot 2}{1 \cdot 2} + \frac{10 \cdot 1}{2 \cdot 1} \\ &= \frac{20 + 10}{2} \\ &= \frac{30}{2} \\&= 15 \end{aligned} \]
