Solution - Reducing fractions to their lowest terms

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "10.2" was replaced by "(102/10)".

Step  1  :

            51
 Simplify   ——
            5 

Equation at the end of step  1  :

  51    
  —— -  1
  5     

Step  2  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

 2.1   Subtracting a whole from a fraction

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

         1     1 • 5
    1 =  —  =  —————
         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:

 51 - (5)     46
 ————————  =  ——
    5         5 

Final result :

  46           
  —— = 9.20000 
  5
