We need to find a common denominator(bottom number of fraction)
5/3 = 25/15 (multiply both top and bottom by 5)
1/5 = 3/15 (multiply both top and bottom by 3)
Now since the denominator is the same we can add to get 25/15 + 3/15 = 28/15
Yes, 3/4 is bigger than 3/5.
One way you can verify this is by drawing a bar model, and cut it into four. Color in three pieces.
Then, draw another bar model the same size as the first one, and cut it into five pieces.
Color in three pieces.
You can see that 3/4 has more shaded in area than 3/5.
Another way you can do this is by dividing the numerator by the denominator for both fractions.
Hope this helped.

The difference is 10.
Answer is A
The binomial can be factored using the difference of squares formula a2-b2 = (a+b) (a-b) where a=x and b=9
(X+9) x(x-9)
