You asked:

Evaluate the expression: \(20.05 - 6.6\)

MathBot Answer:

\[20.05 - 6.6 = \frac{269}{20} = 13.45\]


\[\begin{aligned}20.05 - 6.6& = 20 + \frac{5}{100} - \left(6 + \frac{6}{10}\right)\\& = 20 + \frac{1}{20} - \left(6 + \frac{6}{10}\right)\\& = 20 + \frac{1}{20} - \left(6 + \frac{3}{5}\right)\\& = 20 + \frac{1}{20} - \frac{33}{5}\\& = \frac{401}{20} - \frac{33}{5}\\& = \frac{269}{20}\end{aligned}\]
