DETAILED EXPLANATION

\n" ); document.write( "
Look at \"highlight_red%28+%28highlight_red%28+40%2F100+%29%29%2A6.50+%29\".
Remove unneeded parentheses around factor \"highlight_red%28+40+%29\",\"highlight_red%28+1%2F100+%29\"
It becomes \"highlight_green%28+40+%29%2Fhighlight_green%28+100+%29%2A6.50\".
\n" ); document.write( "
Look at \"highlight_red%28+40+%29%2Fhighlight_red%28+100+%29%2A6.50\".
Factors 40 and 100 have greatest common factor (GCF) of 20. Reducing fraction.
It becomes \"highlight_green%28+2+%29%2Fhighlight_green%28+5+%29%2A6.50\".
Result: \"2%2F5%2A6.50\"
