Solution - Reducing fractions to their lowest terms

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "0.6346" was replaced by "(6346/10000)".

Step  1  :

            3173
 Simplify   ————
            5000

Equation at the end of step  1  :

       3173
  5 -  ————
       5000

Step  2  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

 2.1   Subtracting a fraction from a whole

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  5000  as the denominator :

          5     5 • 5000
     5 =  —  =  ————————
          1       5000  

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:

 5 • 5000 - (3173)     21827
 —————————————————  =  —————
       5000            5000 

Final result :

  21827           
  ————— = 4.36540 
  5000
