Solution 2
We can simplify this expression into 
. Now, taking the common denominator, we get ![\[\frac{200}{50}+\frac{125}{50}+\frac{2}{50}\]](http://latex.artofproblemsolving.com/f/a/f/fafe7fec668c75cd9b9f12bf444aec1e6c167719.png)
![\[= \frac{200+125+2}{50}\]](http://latex.artofproblemsolving.com/a/0/3/a03873103972cbf654a34dfd7bcf97b5db9413e1.png)
