You asked:

Evaluate the expression: \(320.004 - 68.005\)

MathBot Answer:

\[320.004 - 68.005 = \frac{251999}{1000} = 251.999\]


\[\begin{aligned}320.004 - 68.005& = 320 + \frac{4}{1000} - \left(68 + \frac{5}{1000}\right)\\& = 320 + \frac{1}{250} - \left(68 + \frac{5}{1000}\right)\\& = 320 + \frac{1}{250} - \left(68 + \frac{1}{200}\right)\\& = 320 + \frac{1}{250} - \frac{13601}{200}\\& = \frac{80001}{250} - \frac{13601}{200}\\& = \frac{251999}{1000}\end{aligned}\]
