If you simplify all the fraction into the same denominator (100) then you will get an answer of 185/100 or 1.85. Label this as x Then, we can subtract x by the addition of the different fractions we have. For example: X- (4/100+62.5/100). This was the formula that I used for this problem. Then, once you have used trial and error to figure out whether you can create a number really close to 1, you can subtract these fractions from the final equation we need. For example: X- (4/100+62.5/100)= All other fractions added together subtract 4/100 and 62.5/100. Once you have done this, you will get a final answer of:

X-(62.5/100+16.6666666/100+15/100+4/100) or 1.02 (Rounded)
The equation to figure out this via adding the fractions given is:
0.625+0.166666666+0.015+0.04= 0.981666666666666
