Solution - Reducing fractions to their lowest terms

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "7.948" was replaced by "(7948/1000)".

Step  1  :

            1987
 Simplify   ————
            250 

Equation at the end of step  1  :

        1987
  70 -  ————
        250 

Step  2  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

 2.1   Subtracting a fraction from a whole

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

           70     70 • 250
     70 =  ——  =  ————————
           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:

 70 • 250 - (1987)     15513
 —————————————————  =  —————
        250             250 

Final result :

  15513            
  ————— = 62.05200 
   250
