What's wrong with this sql syntax (adding columns)

Question

ALTER table counties add public_schools DECIMAL(5,4), public_trans DECIMAL(6,5);

You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near 'DECIMAL(6,5)' at line 1

You need to repeat add:

ALTER table counties
    add public_schools DECIMAL(5, 4),
    add public_trans DECIMAL(6, 5);
