The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the value of the expression \((A + 2a)/(A - b) + (A + 2b)/(A - a)\) given that \(A\) is the arithmetic mean (A.M.) of \(a\) and \(b\). ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Arithmetic Mean**: The arithmetic mean \(A\) of two numbers \(a\) and \(b\) is given by: \[ A = \frac{a + b}{2} \] 2. **Substituting \(A\) in the Expression**: We substitute \(A\) into the expression: \[ \frac{A + 2a}{A - b} + \frac{A + 2b}{A - a} \] becomes: \[ \frac{\frac{a + b}{2} + 2a}{\frac{a + b}{2} - b} + \frac{\frac{a + b}{2} + 2b}{\frac{a + b}{2} - a} \] 3. **Simplifying the First Fraction**: For the first term: \[ \frac{\frac{a + b + 4a}{2}}{\frac{a + b - 2b}{2}} = \frac{\frac{5a + b}{2}}{\frac{a - b}{2}} = \frac{5a + b}{a - b} \] 4. **Simplifying the Second Fraction**: For the second term: \[ \frac{\frac{a + b + 4b}{2}}{\frac{a + b - 2a}{2}} = \frac{\frac{a + 5b}{2}}{\frac{-a + b}{2}} = \frac{a + 5b}{-a + b} = -\frac{a + 5b}{a - b} \] 5. **Combining the Two Fractions**: Now, we combine the two fractions: \[ \frac{5a + b}{a - b} - \frac{a + 5b}{a - b} = \frac{(5a + b) - (a + 5b)}{a - b} \] Simplifying the numerator: \[ (5a + b - a - 5b) = 4a - 4b = 4(a - b) \] 6. **Final Simplification**: Therefore, the expression simplifies to: \[ \frac{4(a - b)}{a - b} = 4 \] ### Final Answer: The value of the expression is: \[ \boxed{4} \]
