To simplify the expression given \( a + a + 100 = 180 \) in the context of the angles forming a straight angle (which measures 180 degrees), you can combine the like terms.
1. Combine the \( a \) terms:
\[
a + a = 2a
\]
2. Substitute this back into the equation:
\[
2a + 100 = 180
\]
So, the expression with fewer terms is:
\[
2a + 100 = 180
\]
