Solution - Reducing fractions to their lowest terms

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "10.99" was replaced by "(1099/100)".

Step  1  :

            1099
 Simplify   ————
            100 

Equation at the end of step  1  :

  1099    
  ———— +  7
  100     

Step  2  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

 2.1   Adding a whole to a fraction

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  100  as the denominator :

         7     7 • 100
    7 =  —  =  ———————
         1       100  

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:

 1099 + 7 • 100     1799
 ——————————————  =  ————
      100           100 

Final result :

  1799            
  ———— = 17.99000 
  100
