Solution - Reducing fractions to their lowest terms

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "0.8" was replaced by "(8/10)".

Step  1  :

            4
 Simplify   —
            5

Equation at the end of step  1  :

          4
  3337 -  —
          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 :

             3337     3337 • 5
     3337 =  ————  =  ————————
              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:

 3337 • 5 - (4)     16681
 ——————————————  =  —————
       5              5  

Final result :

  16681              
  ————— = 3336.20000 
    5
