You asked:

Evaluate the expression: \(60 + \frac{4.5}{7} \cdot 10\)

MathBot Answer:

\[60 + \frac{4.5}{7} \cdot 10 = \frac{465}{7} = 66.\overline{428571}\]


\[\begin{aligned}60 + \frac{4.5}{7} \cdot 10& = 60 + \left(4 + \frac{5}{10}\right) \cdot \frac{10}{7}\\& = 60 + \left(4 + \frac{1}{2}\right) \cdot \frac{10}{7}\\& = 60 + \frac{9}{2} \cdot \frac{10}{7}\\& = 60 + \frac{9}{14} \cdot 10\\& = 60 + \frac{45}{7}\\& = \frac{465}{7}\end{aligned}\]
