Hi,
Well, a is just one a. So, it's like 5 apples plus 1 apple is six apples. In a similar way,
5a plus 1 a = 6a
In the language of algebra we say:
5a +a = 6a
Hope this helps.

6a
In algebra, single variables all have a coefficient of "1", but this coefficient is always dropped. If it were not, the equation would be:
5a + 1a = a(1 + 5) = 6a

it's 6a why I will make more simple:
5a = a+a+a+a+a ad 1a to them then it will be a+a+a+a+a+a which equals 6a got it

6a because 'a' is actually 1a - hence 5a + a = 6a
