You asked:

Evaluate the expression: \(4.870 - 3.5 \cdot 0.02\)

MathBot Answer:

\[4.870 - 3.5 \cdot 0.02 = \frac{24}{5} = 4.8\]

\[\begin{aligned}4.870 - 3.5 \cdot 0.02& = 4 + \frac{87}{100} - \left(3 + \frac{5}{10}\right) \cdot \frac{2}{100}\\& = 4 + \frac{87}{100} - \left(3 + \frac{1}{2}\right) \cdot \frac{2}{100}\\& = 4 + \frac{87}{100} - \frac{7}{2} \cdot \frac{2}{100}\\& = 4 + \frac{87}{100} - \frac{7}{100}\\& = \frac{487}{100} - \frac{7}{100}\\& = \frac{24}{5}\end{aligned}\]
