Solution - Reducing fractions to their lowest terms

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "29.2" was replaced by "(292/10)".

Step  1  :

            146
 Simplify   ———
             5 

Equation at the end of step  1  :

          146
  1970 +  ———
           5 

Step  2  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

 2.1   Adding a fraction to a whole

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  5  as the denominator :

             1970     1970 • 5
     1970 =  ————  =  ————————
              1          5    

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:

 1970 • 5 + 146     9996
 ——————————————  =  ————
       5             5  

Final result :

  9996              
  ———— = 1999.20000
