Solution - Reducing fractions to their lowest terms

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "0.02" was replaced by "(02/100)".

Step  1  :

             1
 Simplify   ——
            50

Equation at the end of step  1  :

        1
  1 +  ——
       50

Step  2  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

 2.1   Adding a fraction to a whole

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  50  as the denominator :

          1     1 • 50
     1 =  —  =  ——————
          1       50  

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:

 50 + 1     51
 ——————  =  ——
   50       50

Final result :

  51           
  —— = 1.02000 
  50
