Solution - Reducing fractions to their lowest terms

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "5.8" was replaced by "(58/10)".

Step  1  :

Equation at the end of step  1  :

   58
  {——}2 + 32
   10

Step  2  :

            29
 Simplify   ——
            5 

Equation at the end of step  2  :

   29        
  (——)2) +  32
   5         

Step  3  :

Equation at the end of step  3  :

  292    
  ——— +  32
  52     

Step  4  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

 4.1   Adding a whole to a fraction

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  5²  as the denominator :

          32     32 • 52
    32 =  ——  =  ———————
          1        52   

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 :

 4.2       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:

 841 + 32 • 25     1066
 —————————————  =  ————
      25            25 

Final result :

  1066            
  ———— = 42.64000 
   25
