You asked:

Evaluate the expression: \(\frac{100}{1.2}\)

MathBot Answer:

\[\frac{100}{1.2} = \frac{250}{3} = 83.\overline{3}\]


\[\begin{aligned}\frac{100}{1.2}& = 100 \cdot \frac{1}{1 + \frac{2}{10}}\\& = 100 \cdot \frac{1}{1 + \frac{1}{5}}\\& = 100 \cdot \frac{1}{\frac{6}{5}}\\& = \frac{250}{3}\end{aligned}\]
