Sum of  
54/100
and
28/100
in Simplest Form

Given:  
54/100
+
28/100

Since the denominators are common (the same), we can add the numerators:
54/100
+
28/100
=
54 + 28/100
=
82/100
However,  
82/100
 is NOT in Simplest Form since the Greatest Common Factor of 82 and 100 does not equal 1, GCF(82, 100) ≠ 1
Upon inspection, the GCF(82, 100) = 2
In Simplest Form,  
82/100
=
82 ÷ 2/100 ÷ 2
=
41/50
 (1 is the only factor common to 41 and 50)
Therefore, the Sum of  
54/100
and
28/100
is equal to
41/50
in Simplest Form:  
54/100
+
28/100
=
41/50
