Solution - Reducing fractions to their lowest terms

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "17.05" was replaced by "(1705/100)".

Step  1  :

            341
 Simplify   ———
            20 

Equation at the end of step  1  :

         341
  182 +  ———
         20 

Step  2  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

 2.1   Adding a fraction to a whole

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  20  as the denominator :

            182     182 • 20
     182 =  ———  =  ————————
             1         20   

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:

 182 • 20 + 341     3981
 ——————————————  =  ————
       20            20 

Final result :

  3981             
  ———— = 199.05000 
   20
