You asked:

Evaluate the expression: \(\frac{19.55}{2.3}\)

MathBot Answer:

\[\frac{19.55}{2.3} = \frac{17}{2} = 8.5\]


\[\begin{aligned}\frac{19.55}{2.3}& = \left(19 + \frac{55}{100}\right) \cdot \frac{1}{2 + \frac{3}{10}}\\& = \left(19 + \frac{11}{20}\right) \cdot \frac{1}{2 + \frac{3}{10}}\\& = \frac{391}{20} \cdot \frac{1}{2 + \frac{3}{10}}\\& = \frac{391}{20} \cdot \frac{1}{\frac{23}{10}}\\& = \frac{17}{2}\end{aligned}\]
