    Simplify the following:

    (4/5 + 5) / (1/5 + 26)

    Put 26 + 1/5 over the common denominator 5. 26 + 1/5 = (5*26) / 5 + 1/5:

    (4/5 + 5) / ((5*26) / 5 + 1/5)

    5*26 = 130:

    (4/5 + 5) / (130/5 + 1/5)

    130/5 + 1/5 = (130 + 1) / 5:

    (4/5 + 5) / ((130 + 1) / 5)

    130 + 1 = 131:

    (4/5 + 5) / (131/5)

    Put 5 + 4/5 over the common denominator 5. 5 + 4/5 = (5*5) / 5 + 4/5:

    ((5*5) / 5 + 4/5) / (131/5)

    5*5 = 25:

    (25/5 + 4/5) / (131/5)

    25/5 + 4/5 = (25 + 4) / 5:

    ((25 + 4) / 5) / (131/5)

    25 + 4 = 29:

    (29/5) / (131/5)

    Multiply the numerator by the reciprocal of the denominator, 29 / (5*131/5) = 29/5*5/131:

    (29*5) / (5*131)

    (29*5) / (5*131) = 5/5*29/131 = 29/131:

    Answer: 29/131
