Solution - Reducing fractions to their lowest terms

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "0.0004" was replaced by "(0004/10000)".

Step  1  :

              1 
 Simplify   ————
            2500

Equation at the end of step  1  :

    1     
  ———— +  1
  2500    

Step  2  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

 2.1   Adding a whole to a fraction

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  2500  as the denominator :

         1     1 • 2500
    1 =  —  =  ————————
         1       2500  

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 + 2500     2501
 ————————  =  ————
   2500       2500

Final result :

  2501           
  ———— = 1.00040 
  2500
