Evaluate the expression: \(\frac{1.72}{0.02}\)

MathBot Answer:

\[\frac{1.72}{0.02} = 86\]


\[\begin{aligned}\frac{1.72}{0.02}& = \left(1 + \frac{72}{100}\right) \cdot \frac{1}{\frac{2}{100}}\\& = \left(1 + \frac{18}{25}\right) \cdot \frac{1}{\frac{2}{100}}\\& = \frac{43}{25} \cdot \frac{1}{\frac{2}{100}}\\& = \frac{43}{25} \cdot \frac{1}{\frac{1}{50}}\\& = 86\end{aligned}\]
