You asked:

Simplify the expression: \(0.2 \left(3 b - 5 c\right)\)

MathBot Answer:

Simplified:

\[ 0.2 \left(3 b - 5 c\right) = \frac{3 b}{5} - c \]


$$\begin{aligned}\frac{2 \cdot \left(3 b - 5 c\right)}{10}\\\frac{3 b - 5 c}{5}\\\frac{- 5 c + 3 b}{5}\\\frac{3 b}{5} - c\end{aligned}$$


Expanded:

\[ 0.2 \left(3 b - 5 c\right) = \frac{3 b}{5} - c \]
