Hello Today we're going to be simplifying the given expression using the given values. So what we are given is M plus N over n minus O. And we are told that M. Is equal to negative nine and is equal to one and always equal to negative 14. So the first thing that we're going to have to do in order to simplify this is substituting the values for M N. And O. Substituting these values is going to give us M plus nine which is negative nine plus one over n minus O which is going to be one minus negative 14. Now in the denominator negative one times negative 14 is going to give us positive 14 and then the numerator negative nine plus one is going to give us negative eight. So making these simplifications is going to give us negative 8/1 plus 14 and one plus 14 is going to give us 15. So what we're left with is negative 8/15. This cannot be simplified any further. So this is going to be the simplified form of the original expression. And with that being said, the answer to this problem is going to be be So I hope this video helps you in understanding how to approach this problem and I'll go ahead and see you all in the next video
