You asked:

Evaluate the expression: \(1 - 1.004 - 48\)

MathBot Answer:

\[1 - 1.004 - 48 = - \frac{12001}{250} = -48.004\]


\[\begin{aligned}1 - 1.004 - 48& = 1 - \left(1 + \frac{4}{1000}\right) - 48\\& = 1 - \left(1 + \frac{1}{250}\right) - 48\\& = 1 - \frac{251}{250} - 48\\& = - \frac{1}{250} - 48\\& = - \frac{12001}{250}\end{aligned}\]
