Solution - Reducing fractions to their lowest terms

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "1.67" was replaced by "(167/100)". 2 more similar replacement(s)

Step  1  :

            167
 Simplify   ———
            100

Equation at the end of step  1  :

  524         167
  ——— • (4 -  ———)
  100         100

Step  2  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

 2.1   Subtracting a fraction from a whole

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  100  as the denominator :

          4     4 • 100
     4 =  —  =  ———————
          1       100  

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:

 4 • 100 - (167)     233
 ———————————————  =  ———
       100           100

Equation at the end of step  2  :

  524   233
  ——— • ———
  100   100

Step  3  :

            131
 Simplify   ———
            25 

Equation at the end of step  3  :

  131   233
  ——— • ———
  25    100

Step  4  :

Final result :

  30523            
  ————— = 12.20920
