Solution - Reducing fractions to their lowest terms

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "2.48" was replaced by "(248/100)".

Step  1  :

            62
 Simplify   ——
            25

Equation at the end of step  1  :

         62
  100 +  ——
         25

Step  2  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

 2.1   Adding a fraction to a whole

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  25  as the denominator :

            100     100 • 25
     100 =  ———  =  ————————
             1         25   

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 • 25 + 62     2562
 —————————————  =  ————
      25            25 

Final result :

  2562             
  ———— = 102.48000 
   25
