#color(brown)(=> 12/11 = 1(1/11)#

#(17*4 + 17*9 + 17*7) / (2 + 34 + 5 * 34 + 3 * 34)#

#=>(64 + 153 + 119) / (2 + 34 + 170 + 102), color(brown)("Multiplication"#

#=> (336 / 308), color(brown)("Addition"#

#=> cancel(336)^color(red)(84) / cancel(308)^color(red)(77)#

#=>cancel(84)^color(green)(12) / cancel(77)^(color(green)(11)#

#color(brown)(=> 12/11 = 1(1/11)#
