Evaluate the expression: \(-6.54 + -2.23\)

MathBot Answer:

\[-6.54 + -2.23 = - \frac{877}{100} = -8.77\]


\[\begin{aligned}-6.54 + -2.23& = - \left(6 + \frac{54}{100}\right) - \left(2 + \frac{23}{100}\right)\\& = - \left(6 + \frac{27}{50}\right) - \left(2 + \frac{23}{100}\right)\\& = - \frac{327}{50} - \left(2 + \frac{23}{100}\right)\\& = - \frac{327}{50} - \frac{223}{100}\\& = - \frac{877}{100}\end{aligned}\]
