Solution - Reducing fractions to their lowest terms

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "116.64" was replaced by "(11664/100)".

Step  1  :

            2916
 Simplify   ————
             25 

Equation at the end of step  1  :

         2916
  225 -  ————
          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 :

            225     225 • 25
     225 =  ———  =  ————————
             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:

 225 • 25 - (2916)     2709
 —————————————————  =  ————
        25              25 

Final result :

  2709             
  ———— = 108.36000
