Solution - Reducing fractions to their lowest terms

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "0.16" was replaced by "(16/100)".

Step  1  :

             4
 Simplify   ——
            25

Equation at the end of step  1  :

         4
  20 -  ——
        25

Step  2  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

 2.1   Subtracting a fraction from a whole

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

           20     20 • 25
     20 =  ——  =  ———————
           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:

 20 • 25 - (4)     496
 —————————————  =  ———
      25           25 

Final result :

  496            
  ——— = 19.84000 
  25
