Solution - Reducing fractions to their lowest terms

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "6.781" was replaced by "(6781/1000)".

Step  1  :

            6781
 Simplify   ————
            1000

Equation at the end of step  1  :

         6781
  100 -  ————
         1000

Step  2  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

 2.1   Subtracting a fraction from a whole

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  1000  as the denominator :

            100     100 • 1000
     100 =  ———  =  ——————————
             1         1000   

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:

 100 • 1000 - (6781)     93219
 ———————————————————  =  —————
        1000             1000 

Final result :

  93219            
  ————— = 93.21900 
  1000
