Solution - Reducing fractions to their lowest terms

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "6.667" was replaced by "(6667/1000)".

Step  1  :

            6667
 Simplify   ————
            1000

Equation at the end of step  1  :

  6667    
  ———— +  18
  1000    

Step  2  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

 2.1   Adding a whole to a fraction

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  1000  as the denominator :

          18     18 • 1000
    18 =  ——  =  —————————
          1        1000   

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:

 6667 + 18 • 1000     24667
 ————————————————  =  —————
       1000           1000 

Final result :

  24667            
  ————— = 24.66700 
  1000
