Solution - Reducing fractions to their lowest terms

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "8.243" was replaced by "(8243/1000)".

Step  1  :

            8243
 Simplify   ————
            1000

Equation at the end of step  1  :

  8243    
  ———— +  1010
  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 :

            1010     1010 • 1000
    1010 =  ————  =  ———————————
             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:

 8243 + 1010 • 1000     1018243
 ——————————————————  =  ———————
        1000             1000  

Final result :

  1018243              
  ——————— = 1018.24300 
   1000
