Solution - Reducing fractions to their lowest terms

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "7.259" was replaced by "(7259/1000)".

Step  1  :

            7259
 Simplify   ————
            1000

Equation at the end of step  1  :

  7259    
  ———— +  1
  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 :

         1     1 • 1000
    1 =  —  =  ————————
         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:

 7259 + 1000     8259
 ———————————  =  ————
    1000         1000

Final result :

  8259           
  ———— = 8.25900 
  1000
