Evaluate the expression: \(48.05 - 3.76\)

MathBot Answer:

\[48.05 - 3.76 = \frac{4429}{100} = 44.29\]


\[\begin{aligned}48.05 - 3.76& = 48 + \frac{5}{100} - \left(3 + \frac{76}{100}\right)\\& = 48 + \frac{1}{20} - \left(3 + \frac{76}{100}\right)\\& = 48 + \frac{1}{20} - \left(3 + \frac{19}{25}\right)\\& = 48 + \frac{1}{20} - \frac{94}{25}\\& = \frac{961}{20} - \frac{94}{25}\\& = \frac{4429}{100}\end{aligned}\]
