Solution - Reducing fractions to their lowest terms

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "2554.8" was replaced by "(25548/10)".

Step  1  :

            12774
 Simplify   —————
              5  

Equation at the end of step  1  :

          12774
  2610 -  —————
            5  

Step  2  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

 2.1   Subtracting a fraction from a whole

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  5  as the denominator :

             2610     2610 • 5
     2610 =  ————  =  ————————
              1          5    

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:

 2610 • 5 - (12774)     276
 ——————————————————  =  ———
         5               5 

Final result :

  276            
  ——— = 55.20000 
   5
