You asked:

Evaluate the expression: \(\frac{42.5}{100}\)

MathBot Answer:

\[\frac{42.5}{100} = \frac{17}{40} = 0.425\]


\[\begin{aligned}\frac{42.5}{100}& = \left(42 + \frac{5}{10}\right) \cdot \frac{1}{100}\\& = \left(42 + \frac{1}{2}\right) \cdot \frac{1}{100}\\& = \frac{85}{2} \cdot \frac{1}{100}\\& = \frac{17}{40}\end{aligned}\]
