You asked:

Evaluate the expression: \(\frac{2025}{900} + \frac{1}{2}\)

MathBot Answer:

\[ \frac{2025}{900} + \frac{1}{2} = \frac{11}{4} = 2.75 \]


The sum can be computed by rewriting each term over a common denominator, where the least common denominator of \(\frac{2025}{900}\) and \(\frac{1}{2}\) is \(900\). \[ \begin{aligned} \frac{2025}{900} + \frac{1}{2} &= \frac{2025 \cdot 1}{900 \cdot 1} + \frac{1 \cdot 450}{2 \cdot 450} \\ &= \frac{2025 + 450}{900} \\ &= \frac{2475}{900} \\&= \frac{11}{4} \end{aligned} \]
