Solution - Reducing fractions to their lowest terms

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "7865.72" was replaced by "(786572/100)".

Step  1  :

            196643
 Simplify   ——————
              25  

Equation at the end of step  1  :

  196643    
  —————— +  9000
    25      

Step  2  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

 2.1   Adding a whole to a fraction

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  25  as the denominator :

            9000     9000 • 25
    9000 =  ————  =  —————————
             1          25    

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:

 196643 + 9000 • 25     421643
 ——————————————————  =  ——————
         25               25  

Final result :

  421643               
  —————— = 16865.72000
