Evaluate the expression: \(\frac{45.75}{1.5}\)

MathBot Answer:

\[\frac{45.75}{1.5} = \frac{61}{2} = 30.5\]


\[\begin{aligned}\frac{45.75}{1.5}& = \left(45 + \frac{75}{100}\right) \cdot \frac{1}{1 + \frac{5}{10}}\\& = \left(45 + \frac{3}{4}\right) \cdot \frac{1}{1 + \frac{5}{10}}\\& = \frac{183}{4} \cdot \frac{1}{1 + \frac{5}{10}}\\& = \frac{183}{4} \cdot \frac{1}{1 + \frac{1}{2}}\\& = \frac{183}{4} \cdot \frac{1}{\frac{3}{2}}\\& = \frac{61}{2}\end{aligned}\]
