Solution - Reducing fractions to their lowest terms

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "2.52" was replaced by "(252/100)".

Step  1  :

            63
 Simplify   ——
            25

Equation at the end of step  1  :

  63    
  —— +  23
  25    

Step  2  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

 2.1   Adding a whole to a fraction

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  25  as the denominator :

          23     23 • 25
    23 =  ——  =  ———————
          1        25   

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:

 63 + 23 • 25     638
 ————————————  =  ———
      25          25 

Final result :

  638            
  ——— = 25.52000 
  25
