Answer
$5+(1/y)=\frac{5y+1}{y}$
Work Step by Step
$5=\frac{5}{1}$. So, the 5 is not in the denominator. Also, suppose the five is in the denominator: $\frac{1}{5}$. Before proceeding with the sum, the LCD should be evaluated.
Correct procedure:
$5+(1/y)=\frac{5}{1}+\frac{1}{y}=\frac{5y}{y}+\frac{1}{y}=\frac{5y+1}{y}$
