Solution - Reducing fractions to their lowest terms

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "410.5" was replaced by "(4105/10)".

Step  1  :

            821
 Simplify   ———
             2 

Equation at the end of step  1  :

         821
  425 -  ———
          2 

Step  2  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

 2.1   Subtracting a fraction from a whole

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  2  as the denominator :

            425     425 • 2
     425 =  ———  =  ———————
             1         2   

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:

 425 • 2 - (821)     29
 ———————————————  =  ——
        2            2 

Final result :

  29            
  —— = 14.50000
