Solution - Reducing fractions to their lowest terms

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "0.1234" was replaced by "(1234/10000)".

Step  1  :

             617
 Simplify   ————
            5000

Equation at the end of step  1  :

        617
  1 +  ————
       5000

Step  2  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

 2.1   Adding a fraction to a whole

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  5000  as the denominator :

          1     1 • 5000
     1 =  —  =  ————————
          1       5000  

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:

 5000 + 617     5617
 ——————————  =  ————
    5000        5000

Final result :

  5617           
  ———— = 1.12340 
  5000
