Reducing fractions to their lowest termsStep by Step Solution
Reformatting the input :
Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:
(1): "a1" was replaced by "a^1".
(2): "1.5" was replaced by "(15/10)".
Step 1 :
3
Simplify —
2
Equation at the end of step 1 :
3
(((tg - (a1250)) - 150) - 150) - —
2
Step 2 :
Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :
2.1 Subtracting a fraction from a whole
Rewrite the whole as a fraction using 2 as the denominator :
-a1250 + tg - 300 (-a1250 + tg - 300) • 2
-a1250 + tg - 300 = ————————————————— = ———————————————————————
1 2
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
Step 3 :
Pulling out like terms :
3.1 Pull out like factors :
-a1250 + tg - 300 = -1 • (a1250 - tg + 300)
Trying to factor a multi variable polynomial :
3.2 Factoring a1250 - tg + 300
Try to factor this multi-variable trinomial using trial and error
Factorization fails
Adding fractions that have a common denominator :
3.3 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:
(-a1250+tg-300) • 2 - (3) -2a1250 + 2tg - 603
————————————————————————— = ———————————————————
2 2
Step 4 :
Pulling out like terms :
4.1 Pull out like factors :
-2a1250 + 2tg - 603 = -1 • (2a1250 - 2tg + 603)
Trying to factor a multi variable polynomial :
4.2 Factoring 2a1250 - 2tg + 603
Try to factor this multi-variable trinomial using trial and error
Factorization fails
Final result :
+2a1250 + 2tg + 603 ——————————————————— 2
