See a solution process below:

Step 1) Add the two numbers in the numerator of the fraction:

#((1 + 1)/25) + 10 => (2/25) + 10#

Step 2)

Convert the integer to a fraction with a common denominator by multiplying the integer by the appropriate form of #1#:

#(2/25) + 10 => (2/25) + (25/25 xx 10) => 2/25 + 250/25#

Step 3) Add the numerators over the common denominator:

#2/25 + 250/25 => (2 + 250)/25 => 252/25#
