Solution - Reducing fractions to their lowest terms

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "465.346" was replaced by "(465346/1000)".

Step  1  :

            232673
 Simplify   ——————
             500  

Equation at the end of step  1  :

          232673
  9945 -  ——————
           500  

Step  2  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

 2.1   Subtracting a fraction from a whole

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  500  as the denominator :

             9945     9945 • 500
     9945 =  ————  =  ——————————
              1          500    

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:

 9945 • 500 - (232673)     4739827
 —————————————————————  =  ———————
          500                500  

Final result :

  4739827              
  ——————— = 9479.65400 
    500
