Question

choose the expression that is equivalent to the expression shown below.
\\(\frac{n}{4} + \frac{n}{4} + \frac{n}{4} + \frac{n}{4}\\)
\\(\circ\\) \\(n\\)
\\(\circ\\) \\(\frac{1}{4}n\\)
\\(\circ\\) \\(4n\\)
\\(\circ\\) \\(0\\)

Explanation:

Step1: Count the number of terms

There are 4 terms of $\frac{n}{4}$ being added. So the expression is $4\times\frac{n}{4}$.

Step2: Simplify the expression

When we multiply 4 and $\frac{n}{4}$, the 4 in the numerator and denominator cancels out, giving $n$.

Answer:

A. $n$
