You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Add and express in simplest form:
5%2F4cd%2B11%2F4cd
You were right except you don't add the denominators (bottom), you only add the numerators (top).
%285%2B11%29%2F4cd
16%2F4cd
4%2A4%2F4cd
cross%284%29%2A4%2F%28cross%284%29%2Acd%29
highlight%284%2Fcd%29
Happy Calculating!!!
