You asked:

Evaluate the expression: \(0.1 + 0.06\)

MathBot Answer:

\[ 0.1 + 0.06 = \frac{4}{25} = 0.16 \]


The sum can be computed by rewriting each term over a common denominator, where the least common denominator of \(\frac{1}{10}\) and \(\frac{6}{100}\) is \(100\). \[ \begin{aligned} 0.1 + 0.06 &= \frac{1 \cdot 10}{10 \cdot 10} + \frac{6 \cdot 1}{100 \cdot 1} \\ &= \frac{10 + 6}{100} \\ &= \frac{16}{100} \\&= \frac{4}{25} \end{aligned} \]
