Solution - Reducing fractions to their lowest terms

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "12.56" was replaced by "(1256/100)".

Step  1  :

            314
 Simplify   ———
            25 

Equation at the end of step  1  :

  314    
  ——— +  64
  25     

Step  2  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

 2.1   Adding a whole to a fraction

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

          64     64 • 25
    64 =  ——  =  ———————
          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:

 314 + 64 • 25     1914
 —————————————  =  ————
      25            25 

Final result :

  1914            
  ———— = 76.56000 
   25
