You asked:

Evaluate the expression: \(573 + \frac{30}{100}\)

MathBot Answer:

\[ 573 + \frac{30}{100} = \frac{5733}{10} = 573.3 \]


The sum can be computed by rewriting each term over a common denominator, where the least common denominator of \(\frac{573}{1}\) and \(\frac{30}{100}\) is \(100\). \[ \begin{aligned} 573 + \frac{30}{100} &= \frac{573 \cdot 100}{1 \cdot 100} + \frac{30 \cdot 1}{100 \cdot 1} \\ &= \frac{57300 + 30}{100} \\ &= \frac{57330}{100} \\&= \frac{5733}{10} \end{aligned} \]
