You asked:
Evaluate the expression: \(200,000 \cdot 1.06 \cdot 17\)
MathBot Answer:
\[200,000 \cdot 1.06 \cdot 17 = 3604000\]
\[\begin{aligned}200,000 \cdot 1.06 \cdot 17& = 200000 \cdot \left(1 + \frac{6}{100}\right) \cdot 17\\& = 200000 \cdot \left(1 + \frac{3}{50}\right) \cdot 17\\& = 200000 \cdot \frac{53}{50} \cdot 17\\& = 212000 \cdot 17\\& = 3604000\end{aligned}\]
