Step by Step Solution
Reformatting the input :
Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:
(1): "0.83333" was replaced by "(83333/100000)".
Step 1 :
83333
Simplify ——————
100000
Equation at the end of step 1 :
83333
1 - ——————
100000
Step 2 :
Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :
2.1 Subtracting a fraction from a whole
Rewrite the whole as a fraction using 100000 as the denominator :
1 1 • 100000
1 = — = ——————————
1 100000
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:
100000 - (83333) 16667
———————————————— = ——————
100000 100000
Final result :
16667
—————— = 0.16667
100000
