1. Problem Description

The problem is to evaluate the sum of two fractions: 25+25-\frac{2}{5} + \frac{2}{5}.

2. Solution Steps

We are asked to add two fractions that have the same denominator.
ac+bc=a+bc\frac{a}{c} + \frac{b}{c} = \frac{a+b}{c}
Here, we have a=2a = -2, b=2b = 2, and c=5c = 5.
Therefore,
25+25=2+25-\frac{2}{5} + \frac{2}{5} = \frac{-2+2}{5}
2+2=0-2+2 = 0
So, 2+25=05\frac{-2+2}{5} = \frac{0}{5}
0n=0\frac{0}{n} = 0 for any nn not equal to 00.
05=0\frac{0}{5} = 0
