Fraction 2: 3/475%
Step-by-Step Calculation5 steps
1. Find the Least Common Denominator (LCD): LCD(2, 4) = 4
2. Adjust numerators: (1 × 2)/4 + (3 × 1)/4 = 2/4 + 3/4
3. Combine numerators over common denominator: (2 + 3) / 4 = 5/4
4. The fraction 5/4 is already in lowest terms (GCD = 1).
5. Convert improper fraction to mixed number: 5 ÷ 4 = 1 with remainder 1 → 1 1/4
Simplified Result
5/4 = 1 1/4

How It Works
Perform arithmetic on simple fractions and mixed numbers with automatic reduction.
- Addition & Subtraction: Find common denominators, combine numerators, and reduce.
- Multiplication: Multiply numerators and denominators straight across, then simplify.
- Division: Multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.
- Simplification: Reduce to lowest terms and mixed numbers using the greatest common divisor.
