Solution - Reducing fractions to their lowest terms

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "8.25" was replaced by "(825/100)".

Step  1  :

            33
 Simplify   ——
            4 

Equation at the end of step  1  :

  33    
  —— +  66
  4     

Step  2  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

 2.1   Adding a whole to a fraction

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  4  as the denominator :

          66     66 • 4
    66 =  ——  =  ——————
          1        4   

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:

 33 + 66 • 4     297
 ———————————  =  ———
      4           4 

Final result :

  297            
  ——— = 74.25000 
   4
