Evaluate the expression: \(132.4 - 15.7\)

MathBot Answer:

\[132.4 - 15.7 = \frac{1167}{10} = 116.7\]

\[\begin{aligned}132.4 - 15.7& = 132 + \frac{4}{10} - \left(15 + \frac{7}{10}\right)\\& = 132 + \frac{2}{5} - \left(15 + \frac{7}{10}\right)\\& = 132 + \frac{2}{5} - \frac{157}{10}\\& = \frac{662}{5} - \frac{157}{10}\\& = \frac{1167}{10}\end{aligned}\]
