Step by Step Solution
Reformatting the input :
Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:
(1): "3.3" was replaced by "(33/10)".
Step 1 :
33
Simplify ——
10
Equation at the end of step 1 :
33
((57 + ——) + 17) + 25
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 :
57 57 • 10
57 = —— = ———————
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:
57 • 10 + 33 603
———————————— = ———
10 10
Equation at the end of step 2 :
603
(——— + 17) + 25
10
Step 3 :
Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :
3.1 Adding a whole to a fraction
Rewrite the whole as a fraction using 10 as the denominator :
17 17 • 10
17 = —— = ———————
1 10
Adding fractions that have a common denominator :
3.2 Adding up the two equivalent fractions
603 + 17 • 10 773
————————————— = ———
10 10
Equation at the end of step 3 :
773
——— + 25
10
Step 4 :
Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :
4.1 Adding a whole to a fraction
Rewrite the whole as a fraction using 10 as the denominator :
25 25 • 10
25 = —— = ———————
1 10
Adding fractions that have a common denominator :
4.2 Adding up the two equivalent fractions
773 + 25 • 10 1023
————————————— = ————
10 10
Final result :
1023
———— = 102.30000
10
