To simplify the expression \( \frac{6}{3} + \frac{4}{2} + \frac{4}{4} \), we will perform the operations step by step, following the order of operations (also known as PEMDAS/BODMAS).
1. First, we calculate each division:
- \( \frac{6}{3} = 2 \)
- \( \frac{4}{2} = 2 \)
- \( \frac{4}{4} = 1 \)
2. Now, we can substitute these values back into the expression:
\[
2 + 2 + 1
\]
3. Next, we add these numbers together:
- \( 2 + 2 = 4 \)
- \( 4 + 1 = 5 \)
So, the simplified result is \( 5 \).
Therefore, the answer is **C 5**.
