Solution - Reducing fractions to their lowest terms

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "0.2456" was replaced by "(2456/10000)".

Step  1  :

             307
 Simplify   ————
            1250

Equation at the end of step  1  :

         307
  57 -  ————
        1250

Step  2  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

 2.1   Subtracting a fraction from a whole

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  1250  as the denominator :

           57     57 • 1250
     57 =  ——  =  —————————
           1        1250   

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 • 1250 - (307)     70943
 —————————————————  =  —————
       1250            1250 

Final result :

  70943            
  ————— = 56.75440 
  1250
