Solution - Reducing fractions to their lowest terms

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "728.88" was replaced by "(72888/100)".

Step  1  :

            18222
 Simplify   —————
             25  

Equation at the end of step  1  :

           18222
  83456 -  —————
            25  

Step  2  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

 2.1   Subtracting a fraction from a whole

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

              83456     83456 • 25
     83456 =  —————  =  ——————————
                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:

 83456 • 25 - (18222)     2068178
 ————————————————————  =  ———————
          25                25   

Final result :

  2068178               
  ——————— = 82727.12000
