Hey there! :D
Since all the terms are being added together, and there is a common denominator with the fractions, we can just add them.
x+x= 2x 3/4+2/4= 5/4
2x+5/4
2x+1.25<== simplest form
I hope this helps!

<span>To find the confidence interval, add and subtract the margin of error from the mean.
With mean 18.7 and margin of error 5.9, you have 95% confidence the answer is between 12.8 and 24.6.</span>
First you should combine n/6-5n/12
that goes to 2n/12-5n/12 which equals -3n/12
then you should cross multiply -3n/12 by 1/16
12(1)=-3n(16)
12=-48n then solve for n by dividing by -48
-12/48=n simplify -1/4=n or -.25=n
