Solution - Reducing fractions to their lowest terms

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "57.836" was replaced by "(57836/1000)".

Step  1  :

            14459
 Simplify   —————
             250 

Equation at the end of step  1  :

        14459
  59 +  —————
         250 

Step  2  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

 2.1   Adding a fraction to a whole

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  250  as the denominator :

           59     59 • 250
     59 =  ——  =  ————————
           1        250   

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:

 59 • 250 + 14459     29209
 ————————————————  =  —————
       250             250 

Final result :

  29209             
  ————— = 116.83600 
   250
