Solution - Reducing fractions to their lowest terms

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "0.0002" was replaced by "(0002/10000)".

Step  1  :

              1 
 Simplify   ————
            5000

Equation at the end of step  1  :

    1     
  ———— +  3
  5000    

Step  2  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

 2.1   Adding a whole to a fraction

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  5000  as the denominator :

         3     3 • 5000
    3 =  —  =  ————————
         1       5000  

Equivalent fraction : The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole

Common denominator : The equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominator

Adding fractions that have a common denominator :

 2.2       Adding up the two equivalent fractions
Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator

Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:

 1 + 3 • 5000     15001
 ————————————  =  —————
     5000         5000 

Final result :

  15001           
  ————— = 3.00020 
  5000
