Solution - Reducing fractions to their lowest terms

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "1.8" was replaced by "(18/10)".

Step  1  :

            9
 Simplify   —
            5

Equation at the end of step  1  :

  9    
  — +  32
  5    

Step  2  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

 2.1   Adding a whole to a fraction

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  5  as the denominator :

          32     32 • 5
    32 =  ——  =  ——————
          1        5   

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:

 9 + 32 • 5     169
 ——————————  =  ———
     5           5 

Final result :

  169            
  ——— = 33.80000 
   5
