34-3/9
You asked:
Evaluate the expression: \(34 - \frac{3}{9}\)
MathBot Answer:
\[ 34 - \frac{3}{9} = \frac{101}{3} = 33.\overline{6} \]
The sum can be computed by rewriting each term over a common denominator, where the least common denominator of \(\frac{34}{1}\) and \(\frac{-3}{9}\) is \(9\). \[ \begin{aligned} 34 - \frac{3}{9} &= \frac{34 \cdot 9}{1 \cdot 9} + \frac{-3 \cdot 1}{9 \cdot 1} \\ &= \frac{306 + -3}{9} \\ &= \frac{303}{9} \\&= \frac{101}{3} \end{aligned} \]
