Solution - Reducing fractions to their lowest terms

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "234.3" was replaced by "(2343/10)".

Step  1  :

            2343
 Simplify   ————
             10 

Equation at the end of step  1  :

            2343
  170238 +  ————
             10 

Step  2  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

 2.1   Adding a fraction to a whole

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  10  as the denominator :

               170238     170238 • 10
     170238 =  ——————  =  ———————————
                 1            10     

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:

 170238 • 10 + 2343     1704723
 ——————————————————  =  ———————
         10               10   

Final result :

  1704723                
  ——————— = 170472.30000 
    10
