You asked:

Evaluate the expression: \(0.5 \cdot 0.5 + \frac{0.5}{5}\)

MathBot Answer:

\[0.5 \cdot 0.5 + \frac{0.5}{5} = \frac{7}{20} = 0.35\]


\[\begin{aligned}0.5 \cdot 0.5 + \frac{0.5}{5}& = \frac{5}{10} \cdot \frac{5}{10} + \frac{5}{10} \cdot \frac{1}{5}\\& = \frac{5}{2} \cdot \frac{1}{10} + \frac{5}{10} \cdot \frac{1}{5}\\& = \frac{1}{4} + \frac{5}{10} \cdot \frac{1}{5}\\& = \frac{1}{4} + \frac{5}{50}\\& = \frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{10}\\& = \frac{7}{20}\end{aligned}\]
