Step by Step Solution
Reformatting the input :
Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:
(1): "0.08" was replaced by "(08/100)".
Step 1 :
2
Simplify ——
25
Equation at the end of step 1 :
2
1 + (——)5)
25
Step 2 :
2.1 25 = 52 (25)5 = (52)5 = 510
Equation at the end of step 2 :
25
1 + ———
510
Step 3 :
Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :
3.1 Adding a fraction to a whole
Rewrite the whole as a fraction using 510 as the denominator :
1 1 • 510
1 = — = ———————
1 510
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
Calculating Multipliers :
3.2 Calculate multipliers for the two fractions
Denote the Least Common Multiple by L.C.M
Denote the Left Multiplier by Left_M
Denote the Right Multiplier by Right_M
Denote the Left Deniminator by L_Deno
Denote the Right Multiplier by R_Deno
Left_M = L.C.M / L_Deno = 510
Right_M = L.C.M / R_Deno = 1
Adding fractions that have a common denominator :
3.3 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:
510 + 32 510 + 32
———————— = ————————
510 510
Final result :
1 + 32
——————
510
