6x%5E2%2Fy%5E2++%2B+5x%5E2%2Fy%5E2
Algebraic fractions 'work' just like normal old fractions. In order to add or subtract fraction, they have to be over a common denominator. Once that is done, you just add them
In this problem, both fractions are over the same denominator 1%2Fy%5E2 so just add them
6x%5E2%2Fy%5E2++%2B+5x%5E2%2Fy%5E2
11x%5E2%2Fy%5E2
