Evaluate the expression: \(33.5 - 14.4\)

MathBot Answer:

\[33.5 - 14.4 = \frac{191}{10} = 19.1\]

\[\begin{aligned}33.5 - 14.4& = 33 + \frac{5}{10} - \left(14 + \frac{4}{10}\right)\\& = 33 + \frac{1}{2} - \left(14 + \frac{4}{10}\right)\\& = 33 + \frac{1}{2} - \left(14 + \frac{2}{5}\right)\\& = 33 + \frac{1}{2} - \frac{72}{5}\\& = \frac{67}{2} - \frac{72}{5}\\& = \frac{191}{10}\end{aligned}\]
