Solution - Reducing fractions to their lowest terms

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "899.99" was replaced by "(89999/100)".

Step  1  :

            89999
 Simplify   —————
             100 

Equation at the end of step  1  :

  89999    
  ————— +  1
   100     

Step  2  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

 2.1   Adding a whole to a fraction

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  100  as the denominator :

         1     1 • 100
    1 =  —  =  ———————
         1       100  

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:

 89999 + 100     90099
 ———————————  =  —————
     100          100 

Final result :

  90099             
  ————— = 900.99000 
   100
