Solution - Reducing fractions to their lowest terms
Step by Step Solution
Reformatting the input :
Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:
(1): "0.1" was replaced by "(1/10)".
Step 1 :
1
Simplify ——
10
Equation at the end of step 1 :
1
(23) + (——)2)
10
Step 2 :
2.1 10 = 2•5 (10)2 = (2•5)2 = 22 • 52
Equation at the end of step 2 :
1
(23) + ———————
(22•52)
Step 3 :
Equation at the end of step 3 :
1
23 + ———————
(22•52)
Step 4 :
Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :
4.1 Adding a fraction to a whole
Rewrite the whole as a fraction using 22 • 52 as the denominator :
23 23 • (22•52)
23 = —— = ————————————
1 (22•52)
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 :
4.2 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:
23 • 100 + 1 801
———————————— = ———
100 100
Final result :
801
——— = 8.01000
100
