12*1.10*.35*.20
You asked:
Evaluate the expression: \(12 \cdot 1.10 \cdot .35 \cdot .20\)
MathBot Answer:
\[12 \cdot 1.10 \cdot .35 \cdot .20 = \frac{231}{250} = 0.924\]
\[\begin{aligned}12 \cdot 1.10 \cdot .35 \cdot .20& = 12 \cdot \left(1 + \frac{1}{10}\right) \cdot \frac{35}{100} \cdot \frac{2}{10}\\& = 12 \cdot \frac{11}{10} \cdot \frac{35}{100} \cdot \frac{2}{10}\\& = \frac{66}{5} \cdot \frac{35}{100} \cdot \frac{2}{10}\\& = \frac{462}{100} \cdot \frac{2}{10}\\& = \frac{231}{50} \cdot \frac{2}{10}\\& = \frac{231}{25} \cdot \frac{1}{10}\\& = \frac{231}{250}\end{aligned}\]
